TRB expands commercial insurance portfolio

Harlingen-based Texas Regional Bank (TRB) has acquired Smith-Reagan Insurance, a leading provider of commercial insurance services in Cameron County. The acquisition is part of TRB’s continued expansion of its insurance subsidiary. TRB Insurance Agency was established in 2022 and began issuing policies by acquiring Mission-Duncan Insurance. 

With this transaction, Smith-Reagan adds 18 insurance professionals who will operate out of their current San Benito location. The acquisition of Smith-Reagan Insurance expands TRB’s insurance offerings and positions them to provide a broader range of commercial insurance solutions to businesses of all sizes. Smith-Reagan’s commercial insurance expertise will provide TRB clients with tailored insurance solutions.

Ryan Newman, TRB Insurance Division president, states, “This acquisition is a key milestone for our insurance division’s growth strategy, and we look forward to delivering even more value to our customers in all our regions. The alignment of our core values makes this acquisition a great cultural fit.”

Joe Reagan, CEO of Smith-Reagan Insurance, expressed his excitement about the acquisition, adding, “We are thrilled to become a part of Texas Regional Bank’s insurance division. This acquisition will allow us to leverage TRB’s markets and resources to serve our clients better and offer a broader range of insurance and financial solutions.” 

TRB Insurance will continue to operate as an independent insurance agency, offering competitive policies from premier national insurance carriers.
