Velocity Risk Underwriters CEO Phil Bowie has said the sale of a majority stake in the MGA to Oaktree Capital will accelerate Velocity’s growth ambitions, allowing it to scale more quickly through strategic M&A and set up balance-sheet entities to draw in a broader range of capital support.

Markel and Nephila will continue to hold a minority shareholding in the company after the sale.

Oaktree is an experienced insurance investor.
