Protecdiv: First Minority-Led Re/Insurance Broker Launches in the U.S.

Business Wire

PHILADELPHIA--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Protecdiv, the first tier-one minority-led insurance and reinsurance broker in the U.S., has launched.

The Philadelphia-based company has been set up by experienced insurance industry professional Kael Coleman as a specialty U.S. Property and Casualty (P&C) brokerage with process, technology and diversity at the very center of its business model.

The broker has set an ambitious growth plan to reach $100 million in revenue in five years and aims to have the most diverse workforce in the industry. Protecdiv will also put technology at the core of its services, using modern data management and analytics.

Protecdiv will target Fortune 2000 clients, government and government-related entities to provide insurance solutions. Protecdiv will also provide P&C reinsurance to large and specialty insurers and deliver credit risk transfer services to U.S. public entities including government-sponsored enterprises, mortgage insurers, banks and other asset holders in the mortgage markets.

Protecdiv’s business model addresses the demand for greater diversity among U.S. supplier bases.

“We will be the only minority-owned insurance and reinsurance broker that will universally qualify as a tier-one broker for Fortune 2000 companies,” said Mr. Coleman, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Protecdiv.

Prior to Protecdiv, Mr. Coleman led the global mortgage reinsurance team at Willis Re, the reinsurance arm of Willis Towers Watson, and also spent time at brokerages Guy Carpenter and Holborn.
