Founded in New York City in 1998, the company delivers a wide array of coverages, including workers' compensation, commercial package policies, specialty risk, and extended warranty products, primarily catering to small and middle-market businesses across diverse industries. With operations spanning North America, the United Kingdom, and continental Europe, AmTrust segments its business across small commercial, specialty programs, and extended warranty offerings.

Known for its entrepreneurial approach and emphasis on technology-driven underwriting, AmTrust focuses on niche markets with lower risk profiles and maintains an "A-" (Excellent) rating from AM Best Company.
