Ryan Specialty (NYSE: RYAN), a leading international specialty insurance firm, is pleased to announce that it is forming an exclusive relationship with MagMutual, the largest mutual insurer of physicians and hospitals in the U.S. This relationship is through Sapphire Blue, which specializes in developing sophisticated solutions to complex healthcare risks, and is a part of the firm’s underwriting specialty, Ryan Specialty Underwriting Managers.

Together, their collective effort and experience will create a preeminent insurance solution, protecting and furthering the mission of quality healthcare providers. This exclusive relationship will strengthen product innovation, customer service, and risk management.
Commenting on this strategic relationship, Patrick G. Ryan, Founder, Chairman, and CEO of Ryan Specialty, said, “MagMutual is a leader in the physicians and hospital professional liability insurance market, and we are pleased to strategically align our healthcare practice with them. We appreciate the collaboration of Neil Morrell and MagMutual’s talented team during this process, and we look forward to jointly bringing innovation and greater customer solutions to our clients and their insureds.”
“Bringing together the two most positively disruptive, fastest-growing and customer-focused organizations in healthcare liability insurance is an exciting prospect for our current and future agents and customers,” said Neil Morrell, CEO of MagMutual. “The synergies are not only self-evident; they are potentially transformative.”
