Menu Our strategy In 2013 we established our 'Growth & Efficiency' programme specifically to build upon the growing momentum within the business. The cornerstones of our strategy are a combination of expert underwriting, consistent performance and dynamic capital management. The primary focus is to deliver strong underwriting performance across our core business lines through in-depth knowledge and through the recruitment and retention of leading underwriting talent. This focus applies to both new and existing classes of business and, when combined with a prudent approach to reserving and disciplined expense management, can deliver consistent performance across the Group. The growth and development of our underwriting portfolio will be supported by a proactive capital management strategy. The key elements of which are: the optimal utilisation of capital to support underwriting, strategic reinsurance purchasing, efficient financing and the proactive management of surplus capital.
