Premia Holdings has expanded its reinsurance capacity by establishing a sidecar vehicle, named Elevation Re (SPC) Limited.
The newly formed vehicle will offer reinsurance support to Premia’s activities in the global property & casualty (P&C) run-off market.
Under this arrangement, Premia will be able to support -off reinsurance opportunities with additional capacity.
It will enable Elevation Re investors to participate with Premia in the P&C run-off via a unique structure.
The newly formed sidecar, which is said to be a segregated portfolio company, has been licensed by the Cayman Islands Monetary Authority.
Elevation Re has initially raised more than $265m from third-party institutional investors.
