OneBeacon will renew business that fits its underwriting guidelines starting with July 1, 2005 effective dates.
Matt Dolan, president of OneBeacon Professional Partners, said, “These are nice additions to our business, as hospital malpractice and managed care are sectors we know well. OneBeacon is fully committed to providing the agents and brokers handling this business with exceptional service as they transition
their clients to OneBeacon coverage.” Renewed business will be insured on policies issued by OneBeacon companies, which are rated “A” (Class XIV) by A.M. Best.

We will continue to grow our health-care executive protection classes of business, which have excellent synergy with the rest of our specialty book.”
The premiums affected by this transaction reportedly represent less than four percent of CSI’s net written premiums and less than one percent of Chubb’s total.
