CEO Art Raschbaum commented: “We are very pleased with our third quarter results which reflect continued underwriting discipline, solid operating performance, and continued expansion of our underwriting portfolio.

“Our growth in the quarter is the result of our 2010 international acquisition, expansion of existing client relationships, and the addition of several new client relationships. In the quarter, we continued to leverage Maiden’s specialist focus on serving the non-catastrophe needs of regional and specialty insurers, our highly efficient operating platform, our unique collateral trust, and our focus on the needs of our clients.

“Importantly, reflecting our unique business model and careful risk management, the widespread catastrophe losses experienced by the industry in the third quarter of 2011 did not adversely impact Maiden’s results. We remain committed to delivering increasing value to our shareholders and customers.”
