Sankaran said: “Reinvigorating our Lloyd’s business is a key element of our strategy. Syndicate 1945 is an important part of our global platform providing us and our strategic partners with access to the licences and ratings that Lloyd’s offers. Partnering with Mosaic, which is a fantastic, entrepreneurial company, sets us on a path to access the right talent, scale our business and achieve profitable growth.”
Mosaic Co-CEO Mitch Blaser said: “This transaction will complement the strategic ambitions of both Mosaic and SiriusPoint and benefits both our companies. Mosaic believes in the power of partnership, and this agreement builds on an already strong relationship with SiriusPoint—as a participating carrier and a fronting partner in our syndicated capital programme.
“We are delighted to incorporate SIMA into our platform, and we are also pleased to welcome SiriusPoint as a strategic investor in Mosaic.”
