Marsh Risk, a business of Marsh, announced the launch of BX1, a new Bermuda-domiciled insurance facility designed to provide US-based clients with an excess casualty insurance solution offering a unified block of $50 million capacity, placement certainty, and superior policy terms for the challenging U.S. casualty market.
BX1 consolidates capacity from leading Bermuda insurers Ascot, Markel, Ark, and Sompo under a single Marsh Bermuda contract. This structure helps simplify documentation and claims handling by providing a single claims decision-maker and contact, reducing administrative complexity and claims expenses for clients.
The policy is issued on the proprietary Marsh XSellence excess casualty form delivering follow-form coverage and includes affirmative coverage for punitive damages—a critical insurance protection often excluded or limited in traditional casualty programs, Marsh said. With a minimum attachment point starting as low as $10 million and flexibility to attach at higher levels, BX1 is designed to meet the needs of complex casualty placements across most industries.
