CHARLOTTE, NC, UNITED STATES, January 8, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — Amwins Special Risk Underwriters (SRU) today announced the launch of its Primary Construction program, an exclusive casualty solution designed to give brokers more flexibility in placing primary construction liability risks.
The new program marks another Amwins-exclusive offering in the casualty space, most recently following the successful launch of its SRU XS Casualty sidecar program in 2025. Together, these programs reflect Amwins’ continued investment in building broad, complementary portfolios across lines of business to address evolving market needs.
“This new program is a natural extension of our strategy to bring differentiated casualty solutions to market that will complement our core specialty carriers in this class,” said Mark Bernacki, chief underwriting officer at Amwins. “By expanding our primary construction capabilities, we’re giving brokers another exclusive tool to help navigate increasingly complex placements without losing sight of underwriting discipline.”
SRU’s Primary Construction Casualty program is written on A+XV paper and offers multiple coverage options designed to support a broad range of commercial construction risks.
“Our focus is on building thoughtful, scalable programs that help brokers deliver real value to their clients,” said Helen Fry, senior vice president at Amwins Special Risk Underwriters. “We continue to provide access to expert underwriting and sought-after capacity for risks that are getting harder to place while building a diversified casualty portfolio to support long-term growth.”
Available exclusively to Amwins brokers, this launch further strengthens SRU’s role as a strategic casualty partner within the broader Amwins platform.
