London – Generali’s P&C division Global Corporate & Commercial UK and Power Energy Risk (PERse) – the largest US-based renewable energy underwriting provider, part of the Ryan Specialty Group (RSG) – announce today a strategic partnership.
Generali GC&C UK enhances its existing capabilities by partnering with PERse, bolstering its expertise in the renewables sector by leading a consortium of capital behind PERse’s expansion outside of North America.

Manlio Lostuzzi, Generali Global Corporate & Commercial CEO, said: “We are delighted to announce this agreement that brings together PERse’s capabilities and expertise in the renewables sector with Generali Global Corporate & Commercial’s extensive global network and local knowledge in over 160 countries around the world. We are also proud to play an active role in supporting the transition towards a more sustainable society and have an impact on the real economy. For us sustainability means doing business well, with a long-term goal for people and communities. This partnership confirms this approach by further offering insurance coverage for clean energy production.”

PERse CEO Michael Bernay stated, “We are delighted to have the support of such a renowned and respected global insurance name as Generali as this exciting new platform takes off. With this trading collaboration, we look forward to compounding the successful relationships we have collectively fostered with our brokers and their clients.”
