Episode 12: DUAL Transaction Solutions - The Intersection of RWI and Excess D&O Coverage

As corporate buyers turn to RWI as a deal solution, and insurance markets try to find creative ways to expand business in an increasingly competitive space, DUAL Transactional Risk has re-branded itself as DUAL Transaction Solutions and will begin offering excess D&O capacity in addition to its core RWI product. On this episode of the podcast, Bryan and Gena are joined by Dennis Kearns, President DUAL Transaction Solutions, to discuss the new D&O offering and DUAL's re-branding effort. Specific topics include:

  • Background on DUAL and the genesis of the new combined offering

  • The state of the current D&O market and the opportunity that DUAL sees

  • Synergies between the RWI product and D&O excess coverage, especially for corporate buyers of both products and the financial services marketplace

  • How DUAL has built the excess D&O capacity with experienced D&O leaders

  • The new structure of the DUAL Transaction Solutions team
