The HNW insurance market is substantial and growing fast. There are an estimated 12 million HNW households in the U.S., and direct premiums written by HNW-focused carriers have increased by ~4% per annum from 2017-19, according to LEK Consulting. With this new program, Vault and NFP seek to meet the dynamic needs of this growing market by providing differentiated solutions through relationships they already trust. Clients can more easily address key insurance needs through channels that are familiar and trusted.

PCG is the program administrator, manager and managing general underwriter (MGU), and Vaults E&S Insurance Company is the carrier managing the coverage and claims.

Partnering with NFP on our new group excess program was a natural choice, said Charles Williamson, co-founder and CEO of Vault.
