A Scalable Specialist in Global Reinsurance and Specialty Insurance Trading at a Deep Discount

Consistent growth, high returns, and disciplined underwriting in an underappreciated model.

Welcome to my Substack, where I delve into the world of truly undiscovered companies from across the globe. Everyone is talking about the same 200-300 stocks, but there are more than 55,000 publicly traded companies in the world.

Yet the market still treats it like a second-tier underwriter. For those looking beneath the surface, the disconnect presents an unusual opportunity.
