Ryan Specialty makes a bold move, sparking industry buzz! In a significant expansion, Ryan Specialty, an international insurance powerhouse, has entered a landmark agreement to acquire Stewart Specialty Risk Underwriting, a prominent Canadian underwriter. But here’s the twist: this acquisition is set to revolutionize the Canadian insurance landscape.

Will it lead to more innovation or increased consolidation? The opinions are sure to be divided.
