About GEROVA Financial Group, Ltd.
GEROVA Financial Group, Ltd., is a specialty reinsurance
company, based in St. George, Cayman Islands, established in 2010
to take advantage of opportunities arising from financial market
dislocations. GEROVA underwrites insurance risks that it believes
will produce favorable long-term returns on shareholder equity.
GEROVA seeks to further enhance returns on equity by directly
originating high-yield senior secured commercial loans to middle
market companies in select industries. At the time of its January
2010 public listing, GEROVA acquired approximately $650 million in
equity capital, including an existing loan portfolio at what it
believes is a significant discount from its value. GEROVA believes
it has opportunities to deploy shareholder capital to acquire high
quality assets at less than market value and opportunities to
gather additional assets by providing reinsurance capacity to
primary insurers that are under writing capacity pressure.
