Can you share your background when it comes to Kinsale?
Kinsale's long-term vision was to replace the licensed off-the-shelf solution entirely with in-house systems, which we achieved in about four to five years, just before going public, around 2015 or 2016. The leadership team, composed of industry veterans, was highly focused and aligned on this strategy. This was my first job in the insurance sector, and I often heard that achieving this was a first in the E&S sector. It wasn't because we had extraordinary engineers, though they were skilled, but because the leadership was dedicated and single-minded in their approach. We were a lean team with a long-term vision, and the leadership's commitment was unwavering.
