The Transaction
Sompo International announced a definitive agreement to acquire Service Insurance Companies, a specialist focused on workers’ compensation insurance, through one of its US subsidiaries. The transaction is subject to certain regulatory and other customary closing conditions.

The acquisition broadens Sompo’s underwriting capabilities and presence across products, customer segments, and distribution channels within the SME market and General Agents marketplace.
Financial Detail
In 2025, Service Insurance Holdings subsidiaries Service American Insurance Company and Service Lloyds Insurance Company reported approximately $300 million in written premiums.
Leadership Perspective
“Together with Service Insurance Companies’ seasoned leadership team and proven workers’ compensation platform, Sompo is establishing a top-tier flagship for our workers’ compensation business. This brings a tremendous opportunity to deliver even greater long-term value to our clients, distribution partners and stakeholders – further advancing our differentiated position in the U.S. commercial insurance market,” said Chris Sparro, Chief Executive Officer, North America, Sompo Commercial P&C Insurance.
“We are thrilled at the opportunity to align with Sompo’s North America leadership team, financial support and strong market presence. Together with Sompo, Service Insurance Companies is better positioned to extend the reach from a monoline workers’ compensation provider into a diversified commercial insurance organization with enhanced scale, capabilities and amplified market relevance,” said Brad Davis, President of Service Insurance Companies.
Industry Significance
The deal reflects continued interest in specialist workers’ compensation capacity and the SME segment among large commercial carriers. By adding an established monoline platform, Sompo positions itself to broaden its US commercial footprint across new products, customer segments, and distribution channels.
