In a video interview with A.M. Best TV at the 2021 WSIA Annual Marketplace in San Diego, CA, Chris Sparro, Sompo International’s CEO of U.S. Insurance said, “the themes really have not changed since 2019 with respect to the degree of optimism in the air for the E&S space in particular.” He also shared his view on the need for diversification and the ongoing soft market, noting that rates have improved, but given the loss environment and inflation, remain insufficient.
