FAQs
This rebrand follows the acquisition of Lombard US & Bermuda by specialist asset management firm BroadRiver Asset Management last year, and marks a new chapter in the firm’s strategic direction and growth.
We have adopted the name Axcelus Financial and a new visual identity to distinguish our firm from Lombard International in the market and better reflect our strengths and vision for the future as we embark on this new stage of growth and expansion. The rebrand also reflects the continuation of our core values and commitment to delivering innovative and customized insurance-based solutions for sophisticated institutional and retail investors.
The name Axcelus conveys a sense of momentum, ambition and quality, with connotations of acceleration and excellence through the word itself.
Visually, the deep navy of the logo and brand reflects trust and security; this is how we want all of our clients, partners and stakeholders to feel about working with Axcelus and is evidenced by our proven industry experience and expertise. The logo mark, extending the upward trajectory of the X in Axcelus, creates a sense of forward movement and aspiration – a sophisticated visual expression of our commitment to create long-term future value through our financial solutions.
There will be no change to our existing policies, and there is no action required by our current policyholders at this time. Going forward, all communications, policy documentation and other materials or correspondence as required will use the new Axcelus Financial name and brand.
There will be no changes to our existing business relationships, operations, or the services we provide to our partners. We remain focused on building and maintaining strong relationships with our trusted partners that help us meet our commitment to deliver compelling value to all clients.
As we look to expand our suite of financial solutions to meet the evolving needs of our clients, we hope to build on our strong existing relationships to further grow and diversify our platform of distribution partners in the future.
