FM and PURE Insurance partner to strengthen loss prevention for high-value homes.

FM and PURE Insurance partner to strengthen loss prevention for high-value homes. Publish Date - 10 July 2026 Through the partnership, FM will bring its engineering expertise and leading research capabilities to help PURE members increase resilience and enhance property protection Johnston, R.I., and White Plains, N.Y., July 10, 2026 - FM, a leading commercial property insurer known for its science- and engineering-led approach to risk management, and PURE Insurance (PURE), the reciprocal insurer exclusively serving high-net-worth families across the United States and Canada, today announced a strategic partnership, expanding FM's leading loss prevention capabilities to protect high-value residential homes. The partnership establishes a long-term collaboration to bring FM's research, engineering and loss prevention expertise to PURE members to help build resilience in their properties. It also includes a risk-sharing reinsurance agreement under which FM will share in PURE's underwriting results. Together, the companies will focus on developing new ways to help high-value homeowners better understand risk, strengthen resilience and prevent loss. Initial efforts will address the most complex homeowner risks - including wildfire-exposed properties - against which FM has helped its clients protect for decades. "We chose the PURE team as our partners as we enter this space because they share the belief that the majority of property loss is preventable through stronger understanding of risk and close collaboration with clients," said Malcolm Roberts, chairman and chief executive officer of FM. "With FM's engineering expertise, leading research capabilities and nearly two centuries of helping clients mitigate risk and build resilience, we see a unique opportunity to partner with PURE and bring that same approach to its members." "PURE has long believed that helping members identify and mitigate risk is one of the most important services we provide," said Martin Leitch, chief executive officer of PURE Insurance. "FM has demonstrated, at scale, that a science- and engineering-led approach can materially reduce risk. We believe these same capabilities can be applied to high-value homes in ways that will lower the cost of risk for PURE members, and give us greater confidence in how we assess and manage risk, which should allow us to responsibly expand the membership over time, including insuring certain risks that we might approach more cautiously today." The partnership reflects strong alignment of purpose between the two organizations, both of which are structured to prioritize the long-term interests of their clients and members and believe proactive loss prevention is key to lowering the cost of risk. Leitch added: "By combining our strengths, we believe we will make a meaningful difference for families by helping them better protect their homes and prevent loss for years to come."

Pure Specialty Exchange Expands Its High Value Homeowners Coverage Into Western States

WHITE PLAINS, N.Y., April 3, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- PURE Specialty Exchange (PSE), the specialty surplus lines insurance carrier dedicated to providing PURE members and other responsible, high net worth families with solutions for their complex exposures has expanded its High Value Homeowners coverage to 6 additional states, including Arizona, Colorado, Hawaii, Montana, Utah and Wyoming. The product is designed for homes in coastal and wildfire exposed areas, as well as short-term rentals and other challenging risk profiles, requiring up to $50M in coverage that do not qualify for coverage with an admitted insurer.As carriers are reducing capacity or closing for new business in these challenging areas, the need for non-admitted solutions has been amplified."Sometimes PURE members buy and build in areas that are exposed to catastrophes like wildfires and hurricanes. They might choose to rent out their homes on a short-term or seasonal basis when not in use," said Bryan Luker, VP, Program Manager. "Whatever the case, if the risk profile falls outside of PURE's appetite, this expansion allows us to provide a solution and demonstrates our commitment to the membership, even when many other markets would decline to offer coverage."PSE is a reciprocal exchange in which:Members (policyholders) help efficiently grow the carrier's surplus through surplus contributions (a small fee that is paid in addition to their premium). This helps reduce PSE's cost of capital and resulting premiums over time.Members appoint an Attorney-in-Fact to manage day-to-day insurance operations. PSE's Attorney-in-Fact is PURE Specialty Risk Management, LLC.Underwriting profits or other surplus gains may be allocated to Member Savings Accounts held in the name of each active member.Additionally, members have access to the same claims, risk management, Member Advocate and service resources as PURE
