Ledgebrook, the Boston-based excess-and-surplus managing general agent, announced it will be expanding its professional lines offerings by launching an architects and engineers product with its capacity provider, the insurer Obsidian.
Carolyn Pearce has joined Ledgebrook as its A&E practice leader with over 25 years of industry experience, having previously served at Hudson Insurance Group, Argo, Lexington (AIG), and Chubb Insurance. Her extensive background in the A&E sector includes various leadership roles where she consistently drove profitable growth and advanced risk management outcomes.
“I am excited to be a part of the Ledgebrook team, launching the Architects and Engineers product. By combining industry expertise with the best-in-class technology, Ledgebrook is uniquely positioned to offer our wholesale broker partners an unparalleled service in the A&E space,” Pearce commented.
This announcement follows the launch of Ledgebrook’s Miscellaneous Professional Liability and Allied Healthcare product with Obsidian. Expanding into the A&E sector marks another significant step in broadening Ledgebrook’s professional liability offerings.
Earlier this year, Ledgebrook completed a $24 million Series A raise, which will directly support the launch of new E&S products, attract more top talent, and fund further investments in their proprietary tech stack.
