Hub’s ownership structure remains anchored by Hellman & Friedman, which acquired its position in 2013 and retains a controlling interest.

Hub International Initiates Confidential IPO Filing
Valued at approximately $29 billion, the Chicago-based insurance brokerage Hub International has taken its first formal step toward a public debut. The firm submitted a confidential S-1 filing to regulators, signaling a transition toward the public markets while keeping specific financial disclosures under wraps for now.
Recent growth efforts underscore the company's scale, highlighted by a $1.6 billion common equity round finalized in May 2025. That transaction drew participation from T. Rowe Price Investment Management, Alpha Wave Global, and Temasek. Alongside its financial restructuring, Hub is pivoting toward internal modernization, recently appointing Faizal Mitha as vice president of AI Sales Innovation to oversee technological integration starting July 1.
