US surplus lines booked a 25% increase in direct premium written (DPW) last year, reaching a record $82.7bn as demand for coverage across a growing number of high hazards and evolving risks grew, AM Best has found.

The result was the largest year-over-year premium growth since 2003, soundly topping the broader P&C industry’s 9.5% growth, according to AM Best’s US surplus lines market report for 2021.
