One problem facing specialty insurers is the dearth and subsequent steep cost of hiring underwriting and actuarial talent. Specialty products are high risk and complicated in nature. They require expert knowledge for profitable underwriting. This is likely to stoke considerable wage inflation in the foreseeable future. To tackle the problem, insurers are trying to train people in-house through internal programs.

Some of the prominent participants in the global specialty insurance market are Lloyd’s, Hiscox Ltd., Catlin Group Ltd., HCC Insurance Holdings, Inc., and RenaissanceRe Holdings Ltd.
