Ryan Specialty Underwriting Managers (RSUM), the underwriting management division of Ryan Specialty, has formally rebranded its North American Professional Liability (NAPL) team to Ryan Financial Lines.
This addition aims to significantly strengthen the international portfolio of Ryan Financial Lines, bringing deep expertise in US professional liability space.
Ryan Financial Lines is RSUM’s managing general underwriter that specializes in a wide range of financial lines products.
NAPL was originally established in October 2021 and has since built a strong reputation for underwriting professional service businesses across the United States, which is supported by a global A+ rated carrier.
The team continues to offer both primary and excess layer coverage for large, risk-managed clients, including law firms, accounting firms, architects, engineers, and construction professionals.
Patrick Comerford and Clive Moore now serve as Managing Directors of the International arm of Ryan Financial Lines, now operating from Ryan Specialty’s London office. The duo previously co-led Castel’s NAPL unit.
Previously, Comerford has led AIG and Lexington’s London market US Professional Liability team for nearly two decades, while Moore held senior underwriting roles at Brit Insurance within its Lloyd’s US Professional Liability division.
Rich Winborn, Chief Executive Officer, International, Ryan Financial Lines commented, “The rebrand to Ryan Financial Lines marks a significant milestone in our international growth strategy.
“Patrick and Clive, along with their colleagues Andrew Lucas and Charles Wright bring exceptional underwriting expertise and leadership to our international business. We’re proud to integrate their team into Ryan Financial Lines.
“This expansion strengthens our ability to deliver innovative, high-quality solutions to our clients across the professional liability spectrum.”
