AFH will pay £1.5m in cash initially from its existing cash resources. It will pay the remaining £3m over the next four years depending on whether Eunisure meets certain performance criteria.
AFH CEO Alan Hudson said: “Eunisure is one of the leading face to face advisory businesses in this sector with national coverage throughout the UK.
“I believe that the acquisition of Eunisure will significantly increase the distribution capacity of AFH whilst at the same time enabling Eunisure to develop rapidly in its core market.”
Eunisure managing director Ralph Mortlock will continue to serve on the company’s board.
