Specialty Risk Re closes $50 million funding round

Specialty Risk Re , a collateral reinsurance company founded in 2024, announced the successful closing of its $50 million institutional funding round, led by private equity firm, NMS Capital Group. This initial investment strengthens SRR’s ability to address “the growing shortfall” in reinsurance capacity.

SRR was established to serve as a strategic capital partner for MGAs and carriers. The firm specializes in quota share and excess-of-loss reinsurance programs, working closely with a select group of program administrators to provide long-term, sustainable solutions for structured risk-sharing.

As part of its underwriting strategy, SRR focuses on mid- to long-tail risks, leveraging a steady and systematic growth model to enhance long-term insurance and investment returns.

“This funding marks a significant milestone in our vision to establish SRR as a trusted and well-capitalized partner in the reinsurance market. Our strategy is built on disciplined risk selection, allowing us to construct a well-diversified book of business without overexposure to any single class or region. By leveraging our strong capitalization and domestic presence, SRR is positioned to be the go-to reinsurance partner in today’s risk environment. The market response to our model has been highly positive. Our investors have already committed access to additional capital as early as the end of Q1 2025, allowing us to scale in response to demand. This strategic flexibility ensures that SRR remains well-positioned to support our partners with stable, long-term capital solutions.” – SRR President and CEO, Jonathan Collura.
