Newfront vs Relm Insurance Digital Asset Insurance

Newfront's digital-asset team brokers coverage for blockchain and cryptocurrency businesses, working "as an extension of your team" on strategy rather than underwriting the risk. ⁵Company-reported. Digital Assets & Blockchain offering page.

Relm groups named Digital Asset & Web3 products (Investment Managers, Staking and Slashing, Exchange Default, Cyber and Technology E&O, Package Policy, and Crime) into a dedicated industry product line, separate from its general lines of business. ⁸Company-reported. Products page structure; not a statement identifying the issuing insurer for a given placement.

Newfront says its digital-asset team has "deep industry connections with specialty underwriters in the US, London & Bermuda," but the page does not name the specific insurers that would issue a policy. ⁵Company-reported. The Newfront difference section; describes underwriter relationships generally, not a named carrier panel.

The reviewed pages do not name a specific issuing insurer for digital-asset placements; Relm's separate fronting-partner announcement names Trisura Specialty Insurance Company in connection with US digital-asset risks generally, but that announcement was not treated as evidence for a specific current placement in this record. ⁸Not publicly disclosed.
