(Bermuda) and its affiliates, Vantage Risk Specialty Insurance Company and Vantage Risk Assurance Company (both domiciled in Wilmington, DE), which do business as Vantage Group, remain unchanged following an announced leadership change.<\/p><br\/><a href=\"https:\/\/mms.businesswire.com\/media\/20260717390148\/en\/828829\/5\/AM_Best_Logo.jpg\"><img src=\"https:\/\/mms.businesswire.com\/media\/20260717390148\/en\/828829\/22\/AM_Best_Logo.jpg\" \/><\/a><br\/><a href=\"https:\/\/mms.businesswire.com\/media\/20260717390148\/en\/828829\/5\/AM_Best_Logo.jpg\"><img src=\"https:\/\/mms.businesswire.com\/media\/20260717390148\/en\/828829\/21\/AM_Best_Logo.jpg\" \/><\/a><p>\nMarc Grandisson, former CEO of Arch Capital Group Ltd. [NASDAQ: ACGL], has been appointed executive chairman of Vantage Group Holdings Ltd. (Vantage). Additionally, David Gansberg, former president of Arch Capital Group Ltd., has been appointed CEO of Vantage. Grandisson\u2019s appointment is effective immediately; however, Gansberg\u2019s appointment will not take effect until June 2027. Until then, Grandisson will work with Vantage\u2019s founding CEO, Greg Hendrick, through the transition.<\/p><p>\nThe appointments offer additional experienced industry leadership to the Vantage Group. While the transition represents a notable governance change following Howard Hughes Holdings Inc.\u2019s [NYSE: HHH] acquisition of Vantage, the group\u2019s balance sheet strength, operating performance, business profile, and enterprise risk management assessments remain unchanged. Additionally, the outlooks of these ratings remain positive.<\/p><p>\nAM Best will continue to monitor the leadership transition through the remainder of Hendrick\u2019s tenure and Gansberg\u2019s transition into the new role, and potentially take rating action should any developments impact Vantage\u2019s creditworthiness.<\/p><p>\n<b>This press release relates to Credit Ratings that have been published on AM Best\u2019s website.
