NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
MARCH 31, 1998
1. INTERIM ACCOUNTING POLICY
In the opinion of management of the Company, the accompanying unaudited
consolidated financial statements include all adjustments, consisting only of
normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the financial position
of the Company and the results of operations and cash flows for the three months
ended March 31, 1998 and 1997. Although the Company believes that the
disclosure in these financial statements is adequate to make the information
presented not misleading certain information and footnote information normally
included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles has been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and
regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Results of operations
for the three months ended March 31, 1998 are not necessarily indicative of what
operating results may be for the full year.
2. COMPREHENSIVE INCOME
During the first quarter of 1998 the Company adopted Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 130, Reporting Comprehensive Income. Comprehensive
income is defined as the change in equity of a business enterprise during a
period from transactions and other events and circumstances from nonowner
sources. It includes all changes in equity during a period except those
resulting from investments by owners and distributions to owners. Specifically,
the Company has reported the change in unrealized gains and losses on
investments as a deduction from net income to arrive at comprehensive income of
$14.3 million for the first quarter of 1998, compared to $6.4 million for the
first quarter of 1997. The deductions are net of a tax charge of $.8 million in
1998 and a credit of $1.5 million in 1997.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE QUARTERS ENDED MARCH 31, 1998 AND 1997
The results of operations for the quarter ended March 31, 1998, reflect a
continuation of growth in Fee income and Net income due to the strong growth in
the Program Business segment and, increased investment income. Net income
available to common shareholders amounted to $14.5 million or $0.34 per Common
Share for the quarter ended March 31, 1998 on a diluted basis representing an
increase of 26% over the corresponding 1997 period.

margins were 47% for the quarter as compared to 45% in the first quarter of
1997. The components of Fee income are illustrated by business segment in the

</TABLE>
The Program Business segment, the fastest growing business segment,
involves replacing traditional insurers and acting as a conduit between
producers of specialty books of business and reinsurers wishing to write that
business. Program Business accounted for 49% of total Fee income for the first
three months of 1998 compared to 38% in the corresponding 1997 period. Fees
from Program Business increased 69% in the first quarter to $15.5 million
compared to $9.2 million in the first quarter of 1997 as a result of the
continued expansion in this business both through the growth of existing
programs and the addition of new programs. Program Business profit margins were
40% in both periods.
Gross premiums written increased 38% to $182 million for the first three
months of 1998 as compared to $132 million in 1997, primarily as a result of the
growth within the Program Business segment. Program Business generally involves
greater premium volume per unit than Corporate Risk Management business.
Premiums earned increased 61% to $28.9 million in the first three months of
1998, as compared to $18.0 million in 1997. This increase was also primarily due
to the growth within the Program Business segment.
Corporate Risk Management, the Company's original business segment,
involves providing services to businesses and associations seeking to insure a
portion of their risk in a loss sensitive Alternative Market structure. This
segment accounted for 36% of total Fee income for the first three months of
1998, down from 48% in the corresponding 1997 period. Corporate Risk Management
fees decreased by 1% in the quarter to $11.3 million compared to $11.5 million
in 1997 as a result of a continuation of the extremely soft commercial insurance
market. Profit margins, however, increased to 48% for the first three months of
1998 compared to 44% in 1997. The Company added 4 new corporate accounts in the
first quarter as opposed to 17 in the corresponding 1997 quarter. Renewal
rates, also reflecting the soft market cycle, dropped to 56% from 83% in 1997.
The Company's Specialty Brokerage business segment provides access to
Alternative Risk Transfer insurers and reinsurers in Bermuda and Europe. The
segment produced $1.8 million of total Fee income in the first quarter
representing 6% of total Fee income. Specialty Brokerage fees grew by 13% in
the first three months of 1998 from $1.6 million in the corresponding 1997
period. Renewal rates remained high in this segment at 91% for the first three
months of 1998 as compared to 82% in 1997. Profit margins, however, decreased
to 22% in the first quarter from 40% for the 1997 first quarter
10
<PAGE>
primarily as a result of declining premium rates in Bermuda on new and renewal
business and the effects of a small start up operation in the U.S.
Financial Services, the Company's newest business segment, is being built
on the acquisition of Hemisphere, which provides administrative services to
offshore mutual funds and other companies. The segment accounted for 9% of
total Fee income for the first three months of 1998 up from 7% in the
corresponding 1997 period. Fees from Financial Services increased in the
quarter by 68% to $2.9 million primarily as a result of an increase in the
number of mutual funds under management from 98 at March 31, 1997 to 150 a year
later. Renewal rates were 100% for the first three months of 1998 as compared
to 99% in 1997. Profit margins were adversely affected in 1998 by a revised
executive incentive plan and staff expansion costs to service new business and
declined to (6%) in the quarter as opposed to 25% in the 1997 first quarter.
During the first quarter, the Company replaced the existing executive incentive
program at Hemisphere with a revised long term plan. The prior plan, which was
put in place in 1996 when the Company acquired Hemisphere, called for a one time
payment in 1999 based on meeting performance targets. Due to the success of
Hemisphere since its acquisition, that payment was likely to amount to the
maximum possible of $5 million. The new plan replaces this potential bonus
payable in 1999 with a current bonus arrangement payable over three years and a
revised set of performance targets. The new incentive program will give
Hemisphere the opportunity to continue the rapid growth that it has experienced
since its acquisition and will facilitate its expansion into the United States
and Europe. This revised executive incentive program will, however, affect the
segment's operating expenses by $600,000 per quarter, adversely affecting the
margins of the Financial Services segment in the short run.
Gross investment income increased by $2.1 million or 31% to $9.1 million in
the first quarter of 1998 over the same period of 1997 as a result of an
increase of 4% in gross invested assets to $473.5 million and an increase in the
yield on these assets. Net investment income, after adjusting for investment
income which is not included in the earnings of the Company, increased by 33%
during the quarter as a result of an increase of 4% in net invested assets to
$407.5 million and an increase in the yield on these assets to 7.9% from 6.2% in
the first quarter of 1997.

</TABLE>
The increases in Total insurance costs were the direct result of the
increases in Premiums earned during the period.
Operating expenses increased by 39% to $19.7 million for the first quarter
from $14.1 million. The increase is attributable to the revised executive
incentive plan in Financial Services, recent acquisitions, and growth in
personnel and other expenses stemming from the increased business in each
segment. Excluding the effect of recent acquisitions and the revised executive
incentive plan, the increase in operating expenses would have been 30%.

The effective tax rate was 13.4% in the quarter compared to 17.6% in the
corresponding 1997 period. The decrease in the quarterly rate is due mainly to
a restructuring of the taxable entities in both the United States and Europe,
and the tax benefit derived from the exercise of employee stock options.
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND LIQUIDITY
Total assets increased to $2.3 billion at March 31, 1998 from $2.1 billion
at December 31, 1997. Assets held in separate accounts, which are principally
managed assets attributable to participants in the Company's IPC Programs,
accounted for approximately 28% of Total assets at March 31, 1998 and 29% at
December 31, 1997. Total Shareholders' equity increased to $277 million at
March 31, 1998 from $260 million at December 31, 1997 primarily as a result of
Net income in the quarter and the issuance of Common Shares offset by the
payment of dividends. Return on equity was 22% for the first quarter of 1998
compared to 20% in the corresponding period of 1997.
The Company continues to produce a positive cash flow from operating
activities which is used to fund short term requirements.
