Core Specialty

The company sees the surety market as a ‘highly attractive’ segment

“Consoloonan” are set to return to the public markets over a decade after their last conference call.

The specialty insurer founded via a recapitalization of StarStone US is likely to go public in Q4.

The ratings reflect the balance sheet strength of parent Core Specialty.

The insurer appointed industry veteran Tim Martin as surety division president.

The transaction for the financial services book leaves the legacy behind.

The Specialty Markets Group produced DWP of $388mn in 2023.

Woodlands Financial Services listing is likely in Q2, but overall environment is subdued.

The specialty insurer agreed to pay $2.5mn in cash for the exclusive right to underwrite the security and alarm business through October 2025, and the unit’s renewal rights.

After pricing below the expected range at its IPO, the Fidelis stock price slipped on the first day of trading - here's how other (re)insurance IPOs have gone since 2000.

Anat health insurance leader Jim Stelling will join Core as part of the deal.

Strong results reflect tailwinds in the E&S space, but social inflation will be a trend to watch.
