Talk business, think underwriter

Knowing how underwriters think, we’re experts in taking risk to the market. Think of it as an ‘I.R.O’ – your ‘initial risk offering’ needs selling as a viable opportunity, especially if it’s new or unusual.    

Mergers and acquisition specialists 

When buying and selling businesses and portfolios there will often be some elements of the deal you're not 100% on. Leveraging our expertise brings comfort to all concerned. 

Separating and structuring

Having an optimal policy structure, discreet in all the right places, is vital to protect the fund, its directors, the general partner/asset manager and their directors – it’s complex but we’ll simplify it for you.
