At year-end 2023 we had completed 117 transactions since 2000. Today, Enstar is the industry’s largest standalone run-off consolidator. With around 800 global employees, our network of group companies has a significant physical presence in Bermuda, where our headquarters are located, the United States, the United Kingdom, continental Europe, and Australia.
