managing general agent

Alternative risk and reinsurance capital sources are playing a growing role in helping US managing general agents (MGA) grow their businesses, while also being present in their underwriting specialties and a new report from Conning says 51% of MGAs saw ILS funds providing capacity in their markets.

Expanding use of third-party capital, reinsurance sidecars and partnerships with insurance-linked securities (ILS) investors is opening up additional sources of capital for managing general agents (MGA’s), which broker Gallagher Re says helped replace capacity from major reinsurers that have reduced their participation in the MGA marketplace.

According to broking group Howden, inflows are accelerating in ILS arrangements for casualty, managing general agents (MGAs), cyber insurance-linked securities (cyber ILS) and reinsurance sidecars, as capacity providers look to grow existing premium pools.

Insurance focused investment manager Conning has commented on the news about fraudulent or forged collateral linked to reinsurance deals facilitated by insurtech Vesttoo, suggesting it could add pressure to MGA’s negotiations for capacity deals.
