Capacity alignment
Capacity is the financial backbone that empowers MGAs to operate, assume risk, and provide insurance coverage to their clients. Without it, their ability to underwrite policies and operate in the insurance market would be severely limited.
Insurers & Reinsurers recognise that MGAs can bring new streams of niche and profitable business where they may ordinarily not have obtained via their existing network. Couple that with heightened interest from alternative capital sources entering the market seeking diversification in their investments brings an increasing role for Insurance Linked Securities across all P&C classes.
With the importance of strategic alignment between MGAs & Capacity partnerships being ever more crucial, 20Twenty Search & Advisory adds value to MGA clients and offers a different approach.
