WEST HARTFORD, CT, September 12th 2022

New tech-enabled E&S MGA Aurenity has confirmed the launch of its Excess Casualty program, offering products insured by Fortegra Specialty Insurance Company, a subsidiary of The Fortegra Group, Inc. (“Fortegra”). The relationship will allow Aurenity to write a maximum line of $10m which it will deploy on a mix of mid-market products, premises, hospitality, and construction risk. 


Aurenity hired former TMHCC executive Janet Beaver earlier this year to lead its entry into the space, and has confirmed the additional hires of Kelly Tate, Nicole Saladino, Adrienne Scherer, and Ariel Clearman to build out the team. Distribution will be exclusive to wholesale brokers. 

Backed by Chicago investor Agman, Aurenity was launched in January 2022 as a brand-new MGA for the E&S market. They are attracting market leading underwriting talent, enabled with cutting-edge pricing, segmentation, and risk insight technology. Using their ‘Augment™’ underwriting models, Aurenity is harnessing expertise and innovation to deliver a differentiated competitive advantage.

Nick Davies, Aurenity CEO said “Fortegra’s underwriting acumen, claims expertise and financial strength make them a highly desirable partner for Aurenity.” He continued “We are a business built by and for underwriting expertise. Augmented with our pricing technology, we have the right blend of both to deliver sustained underwriting profit for our partners over the market cycle.”


Aurenity has begun accepting submissions with September 15th effective dates
