Guy Carpenter Launches Sidecar Centre of Excellence

The latest news from Guy Carpenter for you;

Guy Carpenter, a leading global risk and reinsurance specialist and a business of Marsh (NYSE: MMC), today announced the launch of a global Sidecar Center of Excellence (COE) that will bring additional dedicated resources to clients seeking holistic solutions to manage their capital, volatility, and growth. This move further positions Guy Carpenter’s Capital Solutions as a strategic differentiator for its clients. Ed Hochberg, Global Risk Solutions Leader, will lead the new COE in addition to his current responsibilities.

Alternative reinsurance capital continues to play an increasing role in the reinsurance market, with 2025 reaching yet another record year. Financial investors today represent more than $120 billion, or an estimated 20% of capital dedicated to the reinsurance industry. Sidecars, which are special purpose vehicles formed by reinsurers, frequently provide crucial investor-funded capacity for property, casualty, as well as diversified exposures.

Commenting on the new COE, Laurent Rousseau, CEO of Guy Carpenter’s Global Capital Solutions business, said: “Sidecars have the potential to offer great value to our clients, provided they are well-structured and managed. By bringing dedicated sidecar resources together under one umbrella, we will be able to structure transactions with all stakeholders in mind – reinsurers, sponsors, and capital providers – that will enable our clients to unlock innovative capacity and optimize their risk-return outcomes in today’s more volatile risk environment.”
