About Us
Royal Palm Insurance Company is a privately
held company headquartered in Ormond Beach, Florida. It was
founded to meet the needs of Florida property owners caught
in the gap as insurance carriers reduce the amount of business
they write in the state.
At Royal Palm Insurance, we understand the difficulties that Florida property
owners face. We feel the same frustrations and concerns about the instability
in the market and the retreat of insurers from the state. We understand
how you feel because we live here, too.
Royal Palm writes insurance exclusively in Florida.
Financial strength means we’ll be here when you need us.
To successfully underwrite homeowners’ insurance
in Florida, a company must be financially sound and properly
reinsured to protect homeowners from multiple catastrophes
in one year. Through our surplus and reinsurance programs, Royal Palm
is strong enough to insure its policyholders against multiple major
hurricanes and other catastrophes in a single year. As an example, in
the event the state faces back-to-back hurricane seasons like those
of 2004 and 2005, Royal Palm would be able to pay all of its claims
and still withstand another hurricane.
An “A” Rating
Royal Palm Insurance has been assigned an “A (Exceptional)”
Financial Stability Rating® by Demotech, a well-known rating
agency for Property/Casualty insurance companies.
Reinsurance
Reinsurance is exactly what it sounds like: insurance that insurance
companies buy for their own protection. As you buy insurance for your
home and car, insurance companies buy insurance to protect their financial
reserves. By purchasing reinsurance from many different, highly respected
companies, Royal Palm diversifies our protection for the benefit of
our policyholders.
Royal Palm maintains a conservative and comprehensive reinsurance
program provided by some of the world’s top reinsurance companies, all
