Third Point Reinsurance said in an amended prospectus that it planned to sell 22.2 million shares at $12.50 to $14.50 a share. At the midpoint of that range, the reinsurer would be valued at nearly $1.4 billion.

Another great write-up from the Brooklyn Investor, this time on the TPRE IPO.

 

So for me, these issues might put a constraint on how much exposure I would want in each of these entities; it is certainly not as rock solid as Berkshire Hathaway (but what is?), but that doesn't mean it can't have an attractive return/risk profile; just don't put 80% of your net worth in it.

..

At 1.1 or 1.2x BPS, I do think TPRE is an attractive opportunity.

..

It won't pay out dividends and doesn't pay taxes (Bermuda) so whatever they earn will compound tax free
