  • Headcount rose ~11% to ~8,000 employees (from ~7,200), with ~2,000 now in Philippines, India, Australia and rest of world, signaling accelerated offshore staffing build-out
  • Arch formally designated as an Internationally Active Insurance Group (IAIG) by Bermuda's BMA in 2024, subjecting it to new global ICS capital standards beginning 2025 — a first-time regulatory milestone with ongoing capital framework implications

Risk Factors

  • Bermuda CIT Act effective Jan 1, 2025 introduces new corporate income tax; OECD Pillar II top-up tax risk remains despite Credits Act offset
  • Trump administration tariffs on imports creating ripple-effect exposure across insured industries; long-term economic slowdown impact unquantifiable
  • Consolidated loss reserves ~$24.5B as of Dec 31, 2025; inherently uncertain, especially in longer-tailed lines amid elevated inflation
  • GSE reform risk: Treasury/FHFA Jan 2, 2025 agreement advances potential conservatorship exit; privatization could eliminate private mortgage insurance credit enhancement role
  • TRIA program trigger $200M with $53.4B industry aggregate retention; 80% federal coverage subject to 20% deductible on prior-year direct earned premium
