Insurance solutions provider Orion180 Insurance has successfully completed its reinsurance program ahead of treaty renewal in June 2026, securing $1.15 billion of capacity in its towers, a 36% year-on-year increase.

The reinsurance program covers Orion180’s growing access and surplus lines of insurance and is supported by a global group of 41 highly rated and diversified reinsurers.

In addition to the increased capacity, Orion180 has also expanded the number of catastrophic events it covers, further enhancing its claims capabilities for multiple events throughout the year.

NOAA’s outlook for the 2026 Atlantic hurricane season includes the potential for 8-14 named storms, 3-6 hurricanes and 1-3 major hurricanes. Orion180 said its expanded reinsurance program reinforces its focus on preparedness, claims payment resilience and disciplined growth.

The new capacity supports Orion180’s continued expansion following 69% growth in 2025, with further growth expected in 2026 as demand for its product portfolio remains strong.

“We value the continued confidence and commitment of our reinsurance partners, which allows us to provide innovative insurance solutions to homeowners and landlords, including in underserved and disaster-impacted markets where coverage options remain challenging,” said Ken Gregg, founder and CEO of Orion180.
