According to Joseph Petrelli, President and co-founder, Demotech, Inc., "Current policyholders of Excalibur National Insurance Company will benefit from the financial scrutiny that the current management team initiated as of June 30, 2018.  Alternatively, should Excalibur find itself a subsidiary or affiliate of a larger entity, policyholders will benefit as well."
