ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
                           AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

For the Quarters Ended March 31, 2000 and 1999

The results of operations for the first quarter of 2000 reflect improvement in
Fees, Operating income, Profit margins and Return on equity over the results for
our last two quarters. However, comparisons to the first quarter of 1999
continue to reflect the decline in operating results that took place in the
second half of last year. Net income available to common shareholders was $6.9
million or $0.17 per Common Share on a diluted basis for the first quarter of
2000, as compared to $18.8 million or $0.40 per diluted share in 1999, as shown
in the tables below.

Fee income decreased slightly in the first quarter of 2000 to $45.3 million as
compared to $45.5 million in 1999. Pre-tax profit margins were 26% as compared
to 36% in 1999, but improved from the previous quarter's level of 13%.

SEGMENT ANALYSIS

     The components of Fee income by business segment are illustrated in Table
III.

TABLE III - FEE INCOME BY BUSINESS SEGMENT

                                    Three Months Ended March 31,

                              2000             1999        Increase (Decrease)
                              ----             ----        -------------------

Program business fees       $24,974          $22,908                 9%

Specialty brokerage fees      3,845            3,141                22%
Financial services fees       6,029            4,420                36%
                            -------          -------
Total                       $45,261          $45,494                (1)%
                            =======          =======
Program Business

Program Business involves replacing traditional insurers and acting as a conduit
between producers of specialty books of business and reinsurers wishing to write
that business. The segment accounted for 55% of total Fee income in the first
quarter of 2000 compared to 50% in the corresponding 1999 period. Program
Business fees increased by 9% in the first quarter of 2000 to $25.0 million as
compared to $22.9 million in 1999. This resulted from the continued expansion of
this segment through the growth of existing programs. Profit margins were 26% in
the first quarter of 2000 as compared to 36% in 1999 as a result of high
operating expenses. Margins improved, however, from the previous quarter's level
of 8%.

Gross premiums written increased 45% to $335.2 million for the first quarter of
2000 as compared to $231.9 million in 1999, 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 44% to $55.9 million in the first quarter of 2000, as compared to
$38.8 million in the corresponding 1999 period. These increases in Premiums
earned were also primarily due to the growth within the Program Business
segment.

Corporate Risk Management

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 23% of total Fee income in the first quarter of 2000, down from
33% in 1999. Corporate Risk Management fees decreased by 31% in the first
quarter of 2000 to $10.4 million. Profit margins were 23% in the first quarter
of 2000 as compared to 44% in 1999 as a result of the decline in fees, which was
not offset by a corresponding decline in operating expenses. Margins improved,
however, from the previous quarter's level of 14%. The level of Corporate Risk
Management fees in the first quarter of 1999 was higher than the remainder of
the year. The Company continues to expect that a firming of prices generally
will begin to improve the sale of corporate accounts later this year.

SPECIALTY BROKERAGE

The Company's Specialty Brokerage business segment provides access to
Alternative Risk Transfer insurers and reinsurers in Bermuda and Europe. The
segment produced $3.8 million of total Fee income in the first quarter of 2000,
representing 8% of total Fee income. Specialty Brokerage fees grew by 22% in the
first quarter as a result of increased business placed in Bermuda and London.
Profit margins declined to 35% in the first quarter of 2000, as compared to 49%
in the corresponding 1999 period.


FINANCIAL SERVICES

Financial Services, the Company's newest business segment, provides
administrative services to offshore mutual funds and other companies and offers
a proprietary family of mutual funds as well as asset accumulation life
insurance products for the high net worth market.  The segment accounted for 14%
of total Fee income for the first quarter of 2000.  Fees from Financial Services
increased in the quarter by 36% to $6.0 million over the 1999 corresponding
period, primarily as a result of an increase in the number of mutual funds
clients under administration from 205 to 303. Profit margins in the Financial
Services segment have been adversely affected since 1998 by the previously
announced revised executive incentive plan and staff expansion costs to service
new business, but increased to 22% for the first quarter of 2000.  Excluding the
effect of the revised executive incentive plan, which will end in December 2000,
the profit margins in this segment would have been 27% for the quarter as
compared to 15% in 1999.


Investment Income

Gross investment income increased by $4.8 million or 55% to $13.6 million in the
first quarter of 2000 over 1999. Net investment income increased by 74% to $12.6
million in the first quarter of 2000, as compared to $7.2 million in 1999.
Included in Gross and Net investment income for the first time is $3.7 million
from a special purpose entity, Endeavour Real Estate Securities Ltd.
("Endeavour"). Endeavour was established by the Company's Financial Services
segment to offer offshore investors an opportunity to invest in U.S. real estate
investment trusts. Endeavour has attracted over $220 million from investors
through March 31, 2000. This investment income was offset by $1.4 million of
Realized losses, $1.9 million of Interest expense, $0.9 million of Operating
expenses and $(0.8) million of Minority interest in the quarter. The significant
assets and liabilities of Endeavour are shown as separate line items in the
Company's Consolidated Balance Sheet as Equity Investments held by Special
Purpose Entity and Minority Interest in Special Purpose Entity. In addition, the
Company increased its bridge loan facility in late December 1999 by $110
million, which was contributed to the Company's U.S. insurance companies. This
increased capitalization of the U.S. insurance companies accounted for most of
the remaining increase in Investment income. Investment yields, excluding
Endeavour, were 6.9% in the first quarter of 2000 as compared to 6.7% in the
corresponding 1999 period.

TABLE IV - EXPENSES

                                  Three Months Ended March 31,

                                     2000     1999  Increase

Operating expenses                $ 34,648   $29,100   19%
Total insurance costs               59,182    39,724   49%
Interest expense                     5,996     1,602  274%
Other expenses                         712       661    8%
                                  --------   -------
Total                             $100,538   $71,087   41%
                                  ========   =======

Operating expenses increased 19% to $34.6 million for the first quarter of 2000,
compared to $29.1 million in 1999. The increase in Operating expenses is
attributable to an increase in personnel and other expenses to service the
Company's existing businesses, the effect of recent acquisitions and the $0.9
million of Operating expenses from Endeavour.

The fluctuations in Total insurance costs were the direct result of the
fluctuations in Premiums earned during the quarter. In the quarter, however, the
net underwriting loss increased to $3.3 million, compared to $0.9 million in
1999 as a result of increased legal costs and premium audit costs as well as an
increase in the loss ratio on our participation in our reinsurance treaty.
Interest expense increased $4.4 million over the corresponding 1999 period as a
result of Endeavour, which added $1.9 million in the quarter, and the bridge
loan financing, offset by a reduction in debenture interest.

The effective tax rate was 8.6% in the first quarter of 2000 compared to 9.7% in
the corresponding 1999 period. These effective tax rates were lower than the
expected federal income tax rate in the United States of 35% plus state income
taxes due to increased earnings outside of the United States and the Company's
investment in tax-exempt municipal securities, partially offset by state income
taxes and foreign taxes.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Total assets increased to $4.3 billion at March 31, 2000 from $4.0 billion at
December 31, 1999. Assets held in separate accounts, which are principally
managed assets attributable to participants in the Company's IPC Programs,
accounted for approximately 17% of Total assets at March 31, 2000 and December
31, 1999. Total Shareholders' equity increased to $361 million at March 31, 2000
from $358 million at December 31, 1999 primarily as a result of Net income in
the quarter, less dividends paid and change in unrealized losses. Return on
equity, before extraordinary loss, was 13% for the quarter.

                                       18

CASH FLOW

Cash flow from operations has historically provided the Company its principal
source of liquidity. The Company produced a positive cash flow in the first
quarter of 2000 of $101,572.

The Company drew down an additional $100 million under its bridge loan facility
in the quarter, resulting in $217 million outstanding at March 31, 2000. During
the quarter, the Company repurchased $222 million face amount of its Convertible
Exchangeable Subordinated Debentures due 2015 at a cost of $101 million,
resulting in an extraordinary loss in the quarter of $4.3 million, net of tax.
The Company expects to refinance the bridge loan facility with permanent
financing during 2000. The Company has and filed an S-3 Shelf Registration
Statement with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission covering up to $500
million of debt and preferred securities and is currently negotiating a
revolving credit facility.

The Company believes that funds generated from operations and available credit
will be sufficient to finance its current operations and to make payments under
its debt facilities.

IMPACT OF YEAR 2000

The Company has not experienced any significant Year 2000 issues to date.  All
systems identified for replacement before the Year 2000 were replaced.  Since
the Company regularly updates its hardware and software, the pure additional
cost of Year 2000 compliance was not material.

The Company has taken steps that it believes are reasonably designed to obtain
assurances that its critical customers, reinsurance intermediaries, managing
general agents, suppliers and others have addressed their Year 2000 compliance
efforts. Although the change in date to Year 2000 has occurred, it is not
possible to conclude that all aspects of the Year 2000 issue that may affect the
Company relating to other third party providers have been fully resolved. The
inability of the Company's third party providers to properly address the Year
2000 issue could have an adverse material impact on the Company's financial
position or results of operations. Management will continue to monitor the
status of and its exposure to this issue, however, the Company has not
experienced any significant Year 2000 issues to date. Contingency plans are
still in place should critical customers, reinsurance intermediaries, managing
general agents, suppliers and others fail to resolve their own Year 2000 issues.
To date, the Company has not been notified of any Year 2000 related claims.
