The medical professional liability (MPL) industry has faced challenges in generating underwriting profits since 2014.

While there are signs of improvement with better rate adequacy and a decline in pandemic-related exposure, the sector still grapples with volatility due to increased severity from large verdicts.

Fortunately, investment returns are aiding surplus growth as reinvestment rates have bounced back from extreme lows. The MPL carriers exhibit a robust overall balance sheet strength, marked by redundant loss reserves.

Pete Chandler will be stepping down in his position as CEO of BMS Re, transitioning to a strategic, client-focused role as Vice-Chair of BMS Re. Pete will remain a Director on the US board. 

Andrew Wheeler and Russell D. McGuire have been appointed as interim co-CEO’s, responsible for the broking teams across the US, executing continued growth strategies, and ensuring a smooth leadership transition.

Pete comments: “Now is the right time for me to step away from the day-to-day CEO role of BMS Re having achieved what we set out to do when I joined the business. I am extremely proud of what we have built, we have grown into a business that we are all incredibly proud of and it has been my enormous privilege to have led it and worked alongside my amazing colleagues. I cannot wait to go back to what I love the most, helping our clients better their businesses and working closely with our fantastic teams across the US and around the world.

I will be focusing my time on the company’s key clients and working directly with them in assisting with their growth plans, capital requirements and supporting Nick Cook, Group CEO, to put in place the next generation of leaders within this fantastic company”.

Over the past 4 years, Pete has brought about significant growth for BMS Re, with the Group now a force in the global reinsurance broking space with offices across the US, London, Bermuda, Turkey, Latin America, and Asia.

Speaking on Pete's remarkable achievements, Nick Cook comments: “The foundations of BMS Re’s success owe an immense amount to the total dedication of Pete who can be hugely proud of all he has achieved. Under his leadership, we saw BMS Re revenues and EBITDA triple as well as the hiring of over 175 new colleagues in the past 4 years. BMS Re is poised for its next stage of growth and investment, and I greatly look forward to 2024.”

The conclusion of Governmental stimulus packages after the Covid-19 pandemic has triggered the highest inflation in 30 years. 

This surge in inflation has, in turn, resulted in a significant rise in company insolvencies, evidenced in the UK where insolvencies have seen a substantial 63% increase in 2023 compared to the figures recorded in 2021.

In this document, our Private Equity, Mergers and Acquisitions, and Tax team discuss how the M&A and Tax insurance market has proven resilient amid the uncertainty, providing strategic support beyond the traditional disposal process.
