Symphony Management Limited

What Symphony Management Limited does

Symphony Management Ltd. is an independently owned insurance management firm incorporated in Bermuda in 1991, regulated by the Bermuda Monetary Authority as an insurance manager under the Insurance Act 1978 and licensed in Anguilla. It operates three lines: captive insurance management, insurance and reinsurance broking through wholly owned Symphony Broking Ltd. (incorporated 1992, with access to Bermuda, London, and Lloyd's markets), and segregated accounts company administration through wholly owned Aria (SAC) Ltd. (incorporated 2002). The firm focuses on Class 2 and 3 license captives and multi-owner insurance arrangements, serving corporate clients in the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, and Europe.

The firm's underlying technology centers on captive insurance administration and the proprietary Aria (SAC) Ltd. segregated account structure, a vehicle it uses to manage multi-owner insurance arrangements and to accept business from new participants in U.S. and non-U.S. markets. Service delivery is handled by a 12-person team led by a Chairman and three Managing Directors, supported by senior financial accountants, an account executive, a corporate secretary, and an office manager. The company emphasizes its independence from major broking groups as a core differentiator and is a member of The Bermuda Insurance Management Association and The Bermuda Insurance Institute. Distribution is direct B2B to corporate clients requiring captive insurance structures, with services in the Cayman Islands delivered through associate relationships. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed.
