Canopius Follow Risk

Canopius Follow Risk (CFR) is positioned alongside our lead business as a way to partner with genuine experts in our non-core products. We want to sit behind our partners in these lines and share in their alpha, while offering them an opportunity to work with Canopius and to benefit from our support in terms of capacity, security and brand.

Why engage with CFR?
