One of the largest privately-owned Lloyd's insurance underwriting business, Canopius Group has achieved significant growth over the past eight years through a mix of organic expansion and acquisition.

 
 

Our Strategic Business Units

In April 2012 we announced a reorganisation of our underwriting structure with the formation of two new strategic business units: Global Property and Global Specialty, headed by Mike Duffy and Steve Gargrave respectively.

Our third strategic business unit, UK Retail was created in 2011 and is headed by Tim Rolfe.

All three CEOs sit on Canopius's Group Executive Committee which has responsibility for managing all business underwritten within the Canopius Group.
