FG Financial Group, Inc. Subsidiary FGRe Announces Reinsurance Contract With Leading Insurtech Company

FG Financial Group, Inc. (Nasdaq: FGF, FGFPP) (the “Company”), a reinsurance and investment management holding company focused on opportunistic collateralized and loss capped reinsurance, while allocating capital to SPAC and SPAC sponsor-related businesses, today announced that the Company’s reinsurance subsidiary, FG Reinsurance Ltd (“FGRe”) has entered into a reinsurance contract with a leading Insurtech company.

This is FGRe’s second contract since FG Global launched the reinsurance subsidiary in June 2020. The contract is with a leader in the Insurtech space that provides automotive insurance utilizing driver monitoring to predictively segment and price drivers, and is underwritten by a contracted team of reinsurance underwriters and priced by a FCAS accredited actuary, with maximum exposure being limited by a loss cap.

Tom Heise, CEO of FGRe, stated, “We are pleased to execute our second contract since the launch of FGRe. Other reinsurers on this risk include some of the largest and highest rated carriers in the industry. Due to the unique structuring of this contract, our modeled returns are expected to meet or exceed internal target rates.”

Larry Swets, CEO of FG Financial Group, stated, “This contract reflects our strategy of patiently deploying capital in compelling, and frequently unique asymmetrical risk reward opportunities. This is a particularly attractive contract given its structure and the other established carriers involved.”
