AM Best to Sponsor and Participate in The Insurer's Program Manager Conference & Awards Event


AM Best Senior Director Greg Williams will participate in a panel discussion on market conditions in the fronting carrier segment during The Insurer's upcoming Program Manager Conference & Awards event in New York, NY. The event takes place May 29, 2024, at Gotham Hall.

The panel is titled, "Fronting Carriers, Collateral and the Vesttoo Fallout," and will be moderated by Desmond Bohan, managing director, ProLink Solutions, BMS Re. Participants will discuss the state of play in the fronting carrier sector; the growth prospects as new arrivals continue to emerge; the potential for consolidation; the evolution of the pure front vs. hybrid model; and the specter of tail risk, among other issues.

He has also been instrumental in the development and launch of Best's Performance Assessment for Delegated Underwriting Authority Enterprises (UAE). A Best's Performance Assessment is an industry-first tool providing an objective, independent opinion of a DUAE's ability to perform services on behalf of carriers.
