A release said that the Frenkel & Company and Frenkel Benefits names will be retired for all Frenkel operations – except Frenkel International, which will operate as a specialty division of EPIC.

Since EPIC acquired Frenkel in November 2017, the company’s Northeast footprint in risk management, property and casualty insurance, international client services, employee benefits consulting, program solutions and private client services has “significantly expanded,” the company said.

“Frenkel’s decision to join EPIC has helped us deliver an expansive new set of capabilities to our clients, with the same commitment to service delivery that has been a hallmark of our firm,” said former Frenkel & Company CEO John Kelly.

Kelly now serves as CEO of EPIC New York following the rebranding.

“Throughout the past two years we have had the opportunity to integrate our teams, culture and businesses and are proud to now be able to present this unification across the risk management and employee benefits community together as one EPIC,” commented EPIC Holdings president Steve Denton.
