Industry
Insurance for regulated industries.
Operators in compliance-heavy sectors carry exposures that move with the regulatory environment. We read investigations defense, professional liability, and management liability towers line by line, then shop and place the coverage across 30+ carriers.
01Overview
What’s distinctive here
Regulated operators get the call before they get the claim. Subpoenas, civil investigative demands, and consent orders arrive with their own defense economics, and most management liability and professional liability forms respond differently to each. Coverage maps to the specific letter, not the general category.
Carrier appetite varies by sector and changes by quarter. The right placement strategy starts with what the regulator does, not what the operator wants the program to look like.
02Sectors we work with
Coverage examples by sector.
Financial services
BD/RIA E&O wording, fidelity and financial institution bonds, regulatory defense, and outside director coverage. The investment advisor act exposure and the firm’s ADV control how carriers underwrite and how claims defense gets coordinated.
Cannabis
Carrier appetite is narrow and shifts with the legal landscape. The federal-state conflict drives exclusions, and the product, license type, and state matter as much as the operator. Property valuation methods, product liability for ingestible versus topical, and management liability for capital-raise documents are the working agenda.
Construction
OCIP and CCIP wrap-ups, residual GL gaps, completed-operations tail, surety and bonding overlap, and the interplay between subcontractor agreements and additional insured wording. The schedule of operations and the trade mix drive carrier appetite as much as loss history.
Insurance and reinsurance
Wholesale brokers, MGAs, program managers, and reinsurance intermediaries carry their own E&O exposures. Definition of professional services, claims-in-progress on an inherited book, and the interaction between E&O and the firm’s D&O are the recurring coverage debates.
Education
K-12 and post-secondary operators face sexual misconduct exclusions on the GL, athletics-related concussion claims, EPLI exposure across faculty and staff, Title IX defense, and abuse-and-molestation sublimits that rarely match the actual exposure.
