Chicago-based insurance broker Aon Corp. said Inpoint, its new insurance consulting firm subsidiary, has acquired Futurity Group consulting firm. Financial terms were not released.

Aon said Futurity, a Henderson, Nev.-based services and solutions provider for the property and casualty insurance industry, delivers a range of strategy, process, analytics, sourcing and technology consulting.

"This acquisition reflects our commitment to creating and securing the top resources and talent available for our carrier clients," said Steven Kauderer, managing partner of Inpoint.

Judy Merante, Futurity president and managing partner, said her firm "has been the only company exclusively focused on improving property and casualty claims performance through a unique combination of consulting services and data-driven solutions."

"With the birth of Inpoint and its unmatched facts, insight and expertise, it was in the best interest of carriers that we marry our firms to ensure the best outcomes for our clients," she said.

Futurity, a privately held company, founded in 2007, has about 20 employees.
