Advised funds managed by Lee Equity Partners, LLC on their investment into Arcadian Risk Capital

Our Bermuda team advised funds managed by private equity firm Lee Equity Partners, LLC on their strategic partnership investment into Arcadian Risk Capital (Arcadian), a fast-growing, specialty managing general agent (MGA) with operations in Bermuda, Ireland, the UK, and the US. 
 
Arcadian underwrites a number of specialty classes of business across general liability, professional liability, and property insurance lines. Since its launch, it has expanded rapidly into a leading global MGA, having built an underwriting-centric business, combining strong technical expertise, a disciplined approach to risk selection and intentional portfolio construction to deliver long-term value to its carrier, insured and broker partners.
 
The transaction is expected to close prior to the end of the first quarter of 2026, subject to customary closing conditions, including regulatory approvals.
 
Our team was led by partner Sarah Demerling with support from Corporate partner Rachel Nightingale and Regulatory partner Leonie Tear, senior counsel Aimee Carroll-Hewitt, senior associate Samantha Walker and associate Kinika Armstrong. We also advised on certain financing aspects of the transaction, led by partner Adam Bathgate with support from senior counsel Joe Williams.
