Major Customers

Accelerant's core business model revolves around partnering with and providing services to a network of Managing General Underwriters (MGUs) and program administrators. These entities are Accelerant's primary customers.

Accelerant offers these partners a comprehensive platform that includes:

• Underwriting capacity (access to insurance capital)
• Advanced data, analytics, and technology infrastructure
• Regulatory, compliance, and claims support

This enables MGUs and program administrators to focus on their specialized underwriting expertise and distribution within niche markets, while Accelerant manages the underlying risk capital and operational complexities.

Due to the nature of its business model, which relies on a broad and diversified network of these partners rather than a few monolithic clients, Accelerant does not publicly disclose the names of specific "major customers" or individual MGUs that constitute a significant portion of its revenue. These partners are typically private companies.

Therefore, while its customers are other companies, specific public customer companies and their symbols are not available or disclosed by Accelerant.

The increasing maturation and adoption of **digital marketplaces and API-first platforms** that facilitate direct and highly automated access for specialized underwriting businesses (Managing General Agents or MGAs) to insurance capacity and regulatory infrastructure. These emerging platforms aim to streamline the process of launching and scaling insurance programs by connecting MGAs directly with a broader array of capital providers and offering standardized, technology-driven fronting solutions, potentially bypassing or significantly reducing the need for more integrated, curated program fronting models like Accelerant's.
