Brit's capital policy is set by the Board and is based on the output of the internal model which reflects the risk profile of the business. The policy requires capital to be held well in excess of regulatory minimum requirements and underpins Brit’s balance sheet strength. The policy ensures the capital adequacy of the Group, and each entity, through an efficient capital structure. The Group proactively responds to developments in the financial environment to ensure its capital strength is maintained whilst optimising risk-adjusted returns.

Brit is part of the Fairfax Group, which is a large Canadian insurance group with significant financial strength.
