RiskPoint Group

What RiskPoint Group does

RiskPoint Group A/S is a privately held Managing General Underwriter (MGU) and Lloyd's of London Coverholder headquartered in Copenhagen, Denmark, operating across 18 locations in Europe, North America, the Middle East and Asia Pacific. The firm was originally founded in 1917 as Hansen & Klein and was repositioned under the RiskPoint brand in 2007 by current majority owners Kenneth Nielsen, Jens Andreasen and Ulrik Evers, with Nordic Capital acquiring a minority stake in 2022. It underwrites eight product lines — Accident & Health, Cyber, Transactional Risk, Casualty, Property & Construction, Renewable Energy, Financial Lines, and Life Science — using binding authority delegated by 25+ capacity-providing insurers and serves clients exclusively through professional insurance intermediaries (brokers and retail agents), supplemented by the RPX instant quote-and-bind platform launched in 2020 to reach corporate and SME brokers.

The business model is intermediary-based: RiskPoint sets wordings, prices risk, binds coverage, appoints retail agents, and adjusts and pays claims on behalf of capacity-providing insurers, in return receiving predefined commission rates that do not affect the client premium. Product breadth is anchored in specialty lines with above-average commission economics, including Transactional Risk (W&I/R&W, Tax Liability, Contingent Risk for M&A — 600+ notifications handled across 24 legal systems with USD 285M+ paid to insureds), Renewable Energy (onshore/offshore wind, solar, battery storage, carbon capture, interconnectors, subsea equipment), and post-2025 Corvus-acquired cyber. In-house claims handling and risk engineering across product lines is positioned as a differentiator versus pure underwriting intermediaries.

Growth has been diversified across geographies and product lines via a mix of organic office openings, targeted tuck-in acquisitions (Scandins in 2016, Corvus Underwriting in 2025), and strategic capacity partnerships such as the 2025 MSIG Asia alliance. Gross Written Premium grew from EUR 50M (2017) to EUR 270M (2023), headcount reached 325+ by 2025, and the 2024 rebrand unified the RiskPoint and RP Underwriting brands under a single RiskPoint Group identity. Recent expansion moves include a DIFC-regulated Middle East entity (2026), Financial Lines launch in the Netherlands (2026), and exploratory dialogue with Uzbekinvest on Nordic market entry.
