Restructuring

The Company restructured its insurance operations to strengthen its market presence and enhance its focus on GBLI’s core Package Specialty and Targeted Specialty products. As a result, the Company exited its four brokerage divisions: Professional Liability, Excess Casualty, Environmental, and Middle Market Property. The Company ceased writing new business and existing renewals were placed in run-off for these four divisions. The restructuring plan, which was initiated in the fourth quarter of 2022, was completed in the first quarter of 2023.

 

In connection with the restructuring plan, the Company incurred restructuring costs of $3.4 million during the fourth quarter of 2022 and $2.1 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 for total restructuring costs of $5.5 million.
