Alpha comment
Syndicate 727 often sees an improvement at the close of a year of account. The improvement for 2018 was driven by a large investment return which tripled in size over the final two quarters. The prior years released slightly less than average, but at 11% of capacity, it demonstrates the strength of the syndicate’s reserves. The syndicate is forecasting a midpoint profit for 2019 which, if achieved, would mean profits in each of the years 2017, 2018 and 2019 – a notable achievement.
