- How Newpoint Re approaches every opportunity independently, with an open mind
- Why in-depth knowledge and understanding is essential to building the right plan
- What makes our solutions custom-built, valuable, and crafted to last
Just as a medic might triage a patient’s condition before deciding what support they need, at Newpoint Re we take a similar approach to risk.
Before we build any (re)insurance solution, we take the time to understand the full picture. We ask: What’s really going on here? What does this business actually need? And where can we add the most value?
Every Case Assessed on Merit
At Newpoint Re, we don’t judge opportunities based on industry sector or product lines. We look at each business on its own terms. Is it well run? Are the fundamentals strong? Is there a clear strategy, even if the risk profile is a little unconventional?
We believe good businesses deserve backing and our independent model means we will always look for a reason to say yes where others might have said no.
Understanding Comes First
Great underwriting starts with understanding, which is why we work closely with MGAs and brokers to get under the skin of the businesses they bring to us. We want to know the story behind the numbers. What’s working, what’s not, and what’s needed to move forward with confidence.
These aren’t surface-level reviews. Our Financial Services background means that we’re well-versed in what makes a risk worth backing. We’re interested in potential, so we always take the long-term view. To do this we ask, ‘How do the fundamentals stack up?’ We dig deep, ask questions, have conversations, and get to know what makes each opportunity unique. We’re looking for businesses which demonstrate:
- Visionary and capable leadership
- Financial discipline
- A strong, scalable business model
- Clear value proposition
- Satisfied, loyal customers
- Efficient operations
- An appetite for innovation and evolution
- Resilience
- Mutual alignment
Tailored Plans, Not Packaged Products
Once we’ve completed our triage process, we build a custom solution that fits, not one that’s pulled off the shelf.
We take input from our underwriting, actuarial and commercial teams, all of whom work together from the very start, to craft something holistic for each and every client. Solutions must be focused on positive, robust outcomes which stand the test of time.
We don’t need everything to be perfect before we get started. In fact, we expect to work through the unknowns together. It’s all part of our Newpoint Re process.
Spotting the Gems
At Newpoint Re, triage is the exciting moment when we spot a gem of an opportunity – one that has perhaps been overlooked by others in the market. From here, we start building something valuable, something for the long-term. It’s how we make sure every custom solution that we craft is grounded in understanding, shaped by experience, and built to last.
