We are a dynamic, independently owned provider of quality insurance products; based in the US and UK.

We are small enough to provide personal attention to our clients and large enough to carry weight with our capital providers.

The key to success is knowledge and experience. We have deployed a leading team of insurance practitioners whose expertise is highly regarded by insureds, brokers and capital providers alike in a variety of classes. This has allowed us to rapidly expand our business and become a class leader in our specialist sectors.
