Press Release

Arch Capital Group details strategy and market outlook at BofA Financial Services Conference

ACGL

M&A

Arch highlighted a 15.5% compounded book value per share CAGR since 2001, growing to $23 billion in equity and a $45 billion investment portfolio, while returning $8 billion to shareholders since 2007.
The firm’s core principles are cycle management, diversification across specialty insurance, reinsurance and mortgage insurance, and disciplined capital allocation guided by a long‐term compensation structure that aligns underwriters’ incentives with shareholder returns.
In property catastrophe, pricing peaked in 2023 and has since declined by double digits, but Arch maintains it remains attractive, using an “S-curve” approach to adjust deployed capital and managing Florida peak zones carefully.
Recent acquisitions include 2020’s plurarity stake in Coface and 2023’s purchase of MidCorp, which provides a property-led mid-market package franchise and a specialty entertainment (Hollywood production) line, accelerating Arch’s growth in those segments.
