This new arrangement demonstrates Nephila’s long-term commitment to State National as its partner to access the primary market for U.S. catastrophe exposed property business. In exchange for the continued exclusive right to produce such catastrophe exposed property insurance via State National, Nephila has agreed to pay State National contractual minimum ceding fees through 2019.
“This is a transformative alliance in our industry. We are proud to extend our partnership with Nephila, and thereby further validate the pairing of a leading investment manager specializing in catastrophe insurance risk with our preeminent fronting services and access to the U.S. market. We are now both better positioned to benefit from the market trends that we believe will generate attractive growth for both Nephila and State National,” commented Terry Ledbetter, State National’s Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer.

The contractual minimum fees are subject to State National’s maintaining its “A” A.M Best rating, with potential reductions if State National is unable to provide production year capacity or is otherwise constrained from writing premium. Furthermore, under certain circumstances, Nephila may terminate the exclusivity, which would reduce the minimum fees to a total of $32.5 million for 2016 through 2019. In the event of such a termination, State National would have the ability to write the catastrophe exposed property business for other capacity providers.
“Working with State National provides the conduit necessary for us to access the primary insurance market. We are pleased to have strengthened our partnership with State National through this new arrangement, which aligns with our business plan and provides enhanced opportunities to efficiently deliver insurance risk to our investors,” said Frank Majors, Nephila’s Managing Partner.
