Client Testimonial
“Throughout the establishment of Corinthian, the ARCAS team leveraged creativity and technical expertise to execute on a complicated, fast-moving, multi-party transaction. The team engineered an innovative deal structure that utilized a London Bridge 2.0 PCC for ourselves, arranged Tier 1 debt to enhance capital returns to all counterparties, and delivered granular analytics that clearly articulated potential investor outcomes. The depth of understanding of Lloyd’s capital frameworks, reporting requirements and processes, along with the close coordination with legal partners ensured a smooth, meticulous process from start to finish. The ARCAS team were some of the most commercial counterparties we have worked with, remaining focused on material items, while flexibly crafting a transaction that worked for all parties involved. We look forward to building Corinthian together in the coming years.”*
