What believers are saying

  • Lee can expand Leadline's third-party capital and fee income.

What makes Ascot unique

  • Leadline Capital Partners is Ascot's dedicated third-party capital management platform.
  • James Lee brings 20+ years in capital markets and ILS execution.
  • He previously scaled Aspen and Sompo capital markets businesses.
