Till Capital has retained MultiStrat Re to provide underwriting services and assist in the Company’s growth. Barriers to entry are a critical factor in limiting access to the reinsurance sector, often requiring start-up capital in excess of $250 million or more. Working within the MultiStrat Re platform the Company gains entry to the reinsurance market at an earlier stage with less upfront capital while providing the opportunity to grow its reinsurance business over time.
