Chartered accountant Wayne Aldridge left South Africa in 1999 to make a new life in Australia. After a fascinating entrepreneurial journey, the company he now runs dominates its field, insuring more than 10 000 Australian racehorses.
HQ Insurance, a replica of the market leader Aldridge helped build in SA, was created through the merger of the company he started and two others.
