We continue to see private equity strong at work in the marketplace. Whether it is the continued development of acquisitions on the distribution side or the development of program capacity through the creation of new carriers, private equity is hard at work. The creation of these carriers should theoretically add more capacity for both new programs or the movement of programs to a more ‘user friendly’ environment. Often these new carriers will combine both the new capacity and the ability to acquire the distribution as part of the process.
Now that face to face meetings at conferences are happening mostly in the way they used to before the pandemic, we look forward to getting back to the good old handshake meetings and sitting across the table and discussing program opportunities.
