ABOUT OUR FIRM
Talisman Specialty Underwriters Inc was founded by experts in the captive insurance industry who saw an opportunity to create specialty insurance programs and manage the complexities of regulatory, legal, compliance, underwriting, and other systems which require precision, commitment, discipline, and vision to succeed. Todays insurance marketplace is fragmented and alternative approaches to risk transfer have created an opportunity for entrepreneurs to compete with large, well funded, and well connected insurance enterprises. The insurance consumer is more savvy, and risk have evolved from a handful of standard coverages and perils to include many new and evolving exposures in our fast paced, modern business environment. Success is no longer a matter of talent and resource alone, but responsiveness to changes in the market and the use of technology to effectuate a transparent relationship between risk takers and their insureds. Our managing agency sponsors and manages multiple captive insurers including investments, reinsurance, and program administration and capacity management. We believe the time for insureds to take control of the cost and design of their insurance coverages has never been better and the multitude of regulated options available to them will encourage disruption to the status quo. Honesty, patience, and creativity are paramount to our innovative approach and we have a track record of delivering simple solutions to complex challenges resulting in underwriting profits to our stakeholders.
