OPERATIONAL ASSISTANCE & GOVERNANCE

Early in our conversations we were apprehensive about partnering with a private equity firm but Stone Point has proven to be a collaborative, supportive, and intellectual contributor to our business. We were looking for additional financial industry perspective to help us broaden our services platform and they have more than met that objective.
