We are open for business and accepting submissions. The foundational reception and support from broker partners is outstanding.”

Skyrisks is offering market-leading insurance capacity and coverage for the dynamic and varied AAM ecosystem, including operators of eVTOL, eSTOL and eCTOL aircraft; autonomous and RPAS fleets; manufacturers of AAM aircraft and major components; suppliers and distributors of AAM component parts; AAM service, maintenance, and repair operations; vertiport construction and operations; AAM airspace management infrastructure and services; alternative aviation fuels and powertrains; next generation avionics and technologies.

Skyrisks also announces today a cornerstone investment from Convex Group Ltd (“Convex”) in addition to its existing insurance capacity partnership. Mike Hansen, Head of Aerospace at Convex, notes “Our approach to sustainability is integral to and integrated in Convex’s strategy. The very purpose of commercial insurance is to support the sustainability of business activities. That is why we are committed to advancing the sustainability agenda across the aviation sector in a long-term partnership with Skyrisks, the leaders in AAM insurance.”

Shelley Lyddon-Mills, Chief Actuary Bermuda at Convex, will join the Board of Directors of Skyrisks. Commenting on her appointment, she notes “We are on a mission to be a market leader in AAM insurance.
