We believe the conditions are right to expand our presence in the Casualty market, and I’m pleased to be able to bring someone of Martino’s experience in to the team to lead this. Combined with new ‘A’ rated capacity, we are looking forward to offering our broker partners new risk solutions managed and underwritten with the same level of service and attention to detail they’ve come to expect from us.”
