Volante Global
Multi-class international MGA platform underwriting specialist re/insurance products across eight lines of business and five continents through Lloyd's Syndicate 1699.
Overview
Volante Global is a multi-class international MGA platform that underwrites specialist re/insurance products across casualty, construction, financial institutions, marine, motor, professional indemnity, property, and reinsurance lines. The company distributes through brokers and intermediaries across more than 200 countries and territories, operating regional underwriting entities on five continents including offices in Canada, Dubai (DIFC), France, Denmark, Sweden, and Singapore.
Volante manages Lloyd's Syndicate 1699 through Asta Managing Agency Ltd and writes across all eight classes with A-rated carrier capacity backing each line. The company was acquired by Acrisure in March 2022 and operates as a subsidiary within that platform. A key operational differentiator is the company's proprietary cloud-based underwriting platform, which integrates front-office and back-office processes and provides analytical dashboards to support underwriting decisions.
In 2025, the company expanded its product range with the launch of Shareholder Activist Protection Insurance (SAPI), a standalone expense cover product for shareholder activist activity written through Syndicate 1699. Volante Re, a new treaty reinsurance platform, also launched in June 2025 under a dedicated Chief Underwriting Officer for treaty business.
