Pollen Street and QIC invest £200m in Markerstudy

The existing founder team have also reinvested alongside the firms.

Markerstudy will use the investment for organic and acquisition-led expansion.

QIC acquired Markerstudy's insurance carriers in 2018 and has since built a personal lines platform with the company, while Pollen Street has been working with Markerstudy for more than a year. This deal is the third investment in the insurance sector for the firm and its second investment from Pollen Street IV. The fund was announced in September 2019 with a target of £600m and is still raising, according to Unquote Data.
