SOBC specializes in the acquisition of legacy insurance liabilities, whether marginally solvent insurance entities, portfolios of run off business or ‘old year' captive liabilities. These usually have some of the following characteristics: • Difficult, long tail or litigious claims • Slow or non-paying reinsurance protections • Legacy systems or lost/destroyed records • Disinterested or no management team • Shareholders requiring a clean exit SOBC aims to purchase companies in their entirety, without warranties or indemnities on prior liabilities. This allows their owners and management a completely clean break and an exit from the problems that exist. SOBC also specializes in assisting companies with difficult claims, legacy systems or non-paying reinsurance protections. Our focus is usually on small entities throughout North America, Bermuda and the Caribbean and will consider entities in the UK and Europe including Eastern Europe.
