Principal-led, since 1990

The people behind A&O.

When you engage A&O, the people you meet at the beginning of the relationship remain involved throughout it.

We believe insurance management is ultimately a relationship business. Structures can be replicated. Trust, judgement and accountability cannot.

Our clients work directly with experienced professionals who understand Bermuda's regulatory environment, insurance market and long-term stewardship responsibilities.

Leadership

A&O's leadership brings extensive experience across Bermuda insurance management, captive insurance, Segregated Accounts Companies (SACs), reinsurance, regulatory compliance, governance and financial reporting.

Together, we support clients throughout the lifecycle of a Bermuda structure — from formation and licensing through ongoing governance, regulatory compliance and long-term management.
