World Insurance Associates Acquires Rockville-Based Still Creek Insurance

World Insurance Associates LLC, a Top 50 Insurance Brokerage headquartered in Iselin, N.J., has added Still Creek Insurance of Rockville, MD to its portfolio, the firm announced July 1, 2026. The transaction closed March 1, 2026, though financial terms were not disclosed.

The Deal

World Insurance Associates — operating under the shorthand "World" — confirmed the acquisition of Still Creek's business in a release distributed through PRNewswire. No purchase price or valuation was provided. The roughly four-month gap between the March 1 closing date and the public announcement is not unusual for mid-market brokerage deals, where regulatory filings and integration groundwork typically precede formal disclosure.

Still Creek Insurance is based in Rockville, Maryland, placing the acquisition squarely in the mid-Atlantic corridor — a market that presents natural adjacency for a New Jersey-headquartered brokerage seeking regional density.

What This Means for World's Footprint

For a firm already ranked among the top 50 insurance brokerages in the country, acquisitions of regional independents like Still Creek represent the standard playbook for maintaining growth and geographic reach. Adding an established Maryland operation extends World's presence into the Washington, D.C. metro area, a market with deep concentrations of government contractors, professional services firms, and healthcare organizations that generate substantial commercial insurance demand.

World did not disclose the size of Still Creek's book of business, staff headcount, or which insurance lines the Rockville operation specializes in.

Source Limits a Fuller Picture

The announcement, as released, provides a narrow set of confirmed details: the acquiring entity, the acquired entity, the closing date, and the two firms' home markets. Readers seeking specifics on transaction structure, retained leadership, client impact, or integration timelines will need to monitor further disclosures from World Insurance Associates directly. As is common in privately held brokerage deals, neither valuation benchmarks nor revenue figures were made public.

What the announcement does confirm is that World continues to deploy capital toward regional consolidation — a defining characteristic of the top-tier independent brokerage segment over the past several years.
