À propos de cet audio
On Insurance Refocused, Lindsay and Carey sit down with Aaron Stocks, CEO of AgencyPoint (PFS Global), to compare accounting firm acquisitions with independent insurance agency M&A. Aaron breaks down why client transferability, systems standardization, and regulatory disclosures make accounting roll-ups very different from buying an insurance agency. He also shares hard-won lessons on cultural fit, pricing discipline, and what to review before you trust a spreadsheet.

- How Board of Accountancy rules and consent requirements slow accounting deals
- Benchmarks and typical multiples across both spaces
- Retention risks when a solo CPA book moves into a larger firm
