Behind the Headlines: Richard Coulson on expanding and diversifying Fidelis's Pine Walk platform
How is The Fidelis Partnership choosing to launch into new insurance classes as it rapidly expands?
The Pine Walk MGA platform has grown significantly in recent years and now writes over $900mn of business. As The Fidelis Partnership continues to diversify its portfolio, deputy group CUO and CEO of insurance Richard Coulson told Behind the Headlines that the company is "agnostic" about whether it enters new classes via a Pine Walk MGA or through its central MGU. With its flexible capital structure—including Fidelis Insurance Group, third-party capacity deals, and its new Lloyd’s Syndicate—Coulson explains that Fidelis has a range of options to link capital with underwriting talent.
