ECI invests in Insurance Insider to accelerate growth

ECI are delighted to announce our investment in Insurance Insider, a leading digital platform providing insight and analysis for the world’s top insurers, distributors, service providers and investors. Their service offering helps customers to uncover new business opportunities and protect against risks through its exclusive insights, deep analysis and data solutions.

ECI is partnering with Insurance Insider’s management team to leverage its unparalleled market position and deep expertise in the Property & Casualty (P&C) insurance industry to accelerate its growth strategy.

Insurance Insider was part of Delinian, which owns a portfolio of companies that provide data, insights, accreditation and events in select global markets. Delinian is focused on value creation and realisation across its portfolio through a three-part strategy of Invest, Grow and Divest. Delinian, formerly Euromoney Institutional Investor PLC, was acquired by Epiris in 2022.

A pioneer since 1996, the business has expanded significantly across and beyond the London (re)insurance market to become the leading market intelligence provider in the P&C and specialty (re)insurance markets.

Operating across three main products, it covers the global (re)insurance market that flows through London, the US P&C market and insurance-linked securities.

Insurance Insider has been at the forefront of the insurance industry for nearly 30 years, and we are now at an inflection point. We have found an ideal partner in ECI, who can help us realise our vision and ambition to become the go-to source of intelligence, insights and data to the global P&C industry. I am immensely excited for what is ahead of us and what we can achieve alongside ECI.”

We are absolutely delighted to be partnering with Insurance Insider for the next stage of their growth. We have been thoroughly impressed by Mariana and her team, who have built a category market leader that is trusted by its clients to deliver depth of expertise and quality insights in the complex non-standard insurance industry. Insurance Insider’s customer retention demonstrates the value of those insights in a fast-moving sector, and there is a fantastic opportunity for the business to serve more customers and enhance its product offering, both in the UK and the US.”
