Fidelis Insurance Group to Become Pelagos Insurance Capital in 2026

Business Wire

PEMBROKE, Bermuda--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Fidelis Insurance Holdings Limited (NYSE:FIHL) (“Fidelis Insurance Group” or the “Company”), a strategic capital allocator and risk selector in specialty insurance and reinsurance, today announced that it intends to change its name to Pelagos Insurance Capital Limited (“Pelagos Insurance Capital”) and is expected to begin trading under the new ticker symbol (NYSE: PLGO) in May 2026, subject to all necessary regulatory and legal approvals.

Dan Burrows, Group Chief Executive Officer, Fidelis Insurance Group, said: “Our new name, Pelagos Insurance Capital, expected to launch in May 2026, captures our brand identity and future direction. It reflects our role as strategic capital allocators, highlights our unique market position, and reinforces our commitment to building lasting partnerships and meaningful connections with an expanded network of underwriting partners.

“Pelagos comes from the root of the word 'archipelago,' a community of islands, each unique yet connected and working together. It reflects how we’re built: a global community of teams, locations and trading partners, each bringing distinct expertise and made stronger by the connections between us.”

Following this brand refresh, our regulatory permissions, our operations and the way we conduct business will remain unchanged. The arrangements we have with underwriters, brokers, clients, investors and suppliers or the coverage, including policy terms and conditions, we provide to our clients, will remain unchanged throughout and after the rebranding process.

Throughout 2026, our various businesses and legal entities will also adopt the Pelagos Insurance Capital name, subject to obtaining all necessary regulatory and legal approvals, including shareholder approval.

The new logo and landing page, together with information on the proposed name change, are available for preview today at www.pelagosinsurancecapital.com.
