## Overview

May Specialty Underwriters is an excess casualty MGA operating in the E&S market through exclusive wholesale broker distribution. The company was launched in November 2021 by Greg May and Bryan May, two industry veterans with a combined 40+ years of excess casualty underwriting experience across construction, real estate, and other specialty sectors.

The MGA was built on the DOXA Insurance Holdings platform, which provides the licensing, operational systems, and infrastructure backbone. This structure allows the founders to concentrate on underwriting expertise and wholesale broker relationships while DOXA supplies carrier capacity and back-office support.

The firm targets commercial excess liability risks that are difficult to place in the standard market, particularly in construction, real estate, hospitality, and manufacturing. Since launching, May Specialty Underwriters has grown its premium volume substantially, with internal staff expansion contributing to roughly a tripling of annual premium within approximately two years of operation.
