The insurtech stated that it works with its members, who are a select network of managing general underwriters (MGU) and programme administrators (PA) to drive growth, with focus on small and medium-sized businesses.

Accelerant CEO and co-founder Jeff Radke said: “At Accelerant our approach is pretty simple — which is maybe what makes it a little radical: We’re bringing transparency, data, and shared incentives back into the equation, serving MGUs as important partners in the insurance ecosystem, and overall making it easier and more efficient to exchange risk.

“We look forward to working with new partners to apply our differentiated approach and technology to lines of insurance beyond SME within which we can have an equally significant impact.”
