Hamilton Insurance Group premiums rise to $831 million in Q2 2026
Gross written premiums grew 16.7% year over year, but the quarter’s combined ratio climbed 8.2 points to 95% and net income fell to $143.8 million.
Bermuda-based insurer and reinsurer Hamilton Insurance Group, Ltd. reported gross written premiums of USD 831 million for Q2 2026, up USD 119 million, or 16.7%, from USD 712 million in Q2 2025, Reinsurance News reported. The company said the increase was driven by higher premiums in its International segment and Bermuda segment.
Net premiums written rose to USD 621.7 million, up USD 65.4 million, or 11.8%, compared with Q2 2025. Net premiums earned increased to USD 586 million, up USD 586 million, or 14.6%, the outlet said, supported by increases in both the International and Bermuda segments.
Despite the top-line growth, the combined ratio for Q2 2026 rose by 8.2 percentage points to 95%, Reinsurance News reported. The quarter’s catastrophe losses, net of reinsurance, were USD 49.9 million, largely attributed to the Middle East conflict, with additional unfavorable prior-year development.
