"In A.M. Best's opinion, Brit Insurance Limited (BIL) continues to strengthen its business profile by extending its presence in the UK market. It offers a well diversified range of products that include specialist insurance as well as traditional property and casualty lines."

"A.M. Best anticipates that the company will substantially increase gross premium income in 2006. In particular, growth is likely to emanate from the London Market division, while its distribution network in the UK regions continues to develop over the medium to long term. The expansion of the business sourced from BIL's UK regional offices is likely to provide the company with access to business previously not available to the company."
