Finite risk reinsurance is a growing business, and Pegasus products are commonly used in conjunction with mergers and acquisitions to cap losses from prior years and protect near term earnings, said Bill Eyre, chief executive officer of Towers Perrin Reinsurance.
Pegasus will bring tremendous talent, depth and expertise in the finite reinsurance arena to Towers Perrin, Eyre added. Greg Leonard, Larry Frank, Hugo Kostelni and the rest of the Pegasus team have established a strong brand as the premier firm in their area, and we expect to leverage their skills to provide innovative and creative solutions for our clients going forward.
In addition to Stop Loss and ADCs for acquisitions, Pegasus also designs and places other nontraditional covers such as finite quota shares, finite specific excess and financial guaranty. Other products of the firm include the design and execution of combined equity and reinsurance arrangements, where the reinsurer also provides hard capital to the customer.
