The Importance of the Insurance Industry

Any business can offer services or produce the goods we need, but no other industry can sell peace of mind the way insurers do. Insurers have delivered on this promise while navigating one of the most complex environments we’ve seen over the past few years, which is even more remarkable.
For over five decades, BMO Capital Markets has stood as a pillar of strength and innovation in the financial landscape, as part of a leading global bank. BMO Financial Group is North America’s 8th largest bank with total assets surpassing US$910 billion, a testament to our dedication to our clients and craft.
Our specialized industry team of 30+ professionals based in New York, Chicago and Toronto, offers unparalleled expertise to help guide our insurance clients through the financial world’s complexities. Our team’s dedication has enabled us to commit over $50 billion to our clients, reflecting our deep-rooted confidence in their ventures.
Our involvement in recent insurance company IPOs, follow-on offerings, and capital raises for front-runners such as Skyward, Fidelis, Hamilton, RenaissanceRe, Intact, Trisura, Resolution Life, Aspen, Canopius and Enstar, underscores our instrumental role in shaping the industry’s landscape. Our prowess extends beyond capital markets as we have served as a trusted M&A advisor to several leading insurance companies, helping them navigate critical transactions that have reshaped their futures.
We are also incredibly proud to have a market-leading research analyst, Mike Zaremski, focused on the insurance industry. His insights and expertise are invaluable and allow us to navigate the evolving complexities of the industry with precision and foresight.
We are on the verge of a new era – one defined by rapid technological progress and constantly changing global dynamics. Let us embark on this journey of exploration with a spirit of collaboration and innovation.
