Kinsale Capital Group, Inc.
A specialty insurer focused entirely on "excess and surplus" coverage — the policies for hard-to-place small and mid-sized businesses that standard carriers turn down, from risky trades to unusual operations. It was founded in 2009 in Richmond, Virginia, by insurance veteran Michael Kehoe, went public on the New York Stock Exchange in 2016, and handles quoting partly through its own technology platform. Its name comes from Kinsale, a historic Irish port town on the coast of County Cork.
