Kyle Menendez - Managing Director of Howden Reinsurance

Kyle Menendez, the Managing Director of Howden Reinsurance (formerly TigerRisk), has been a prominent figure in the reinsurance industry for years. Known for his strategic acumen and deep understanding of risk management, Menendez has been instrumental in shaping significant reinsurance deals. However, his career is now overshadowed by serious allegations tied to the collapse of Lighthouse Insurance.

​

Menendez is accused of playing a crucial role in concealing vital financial information about Lighthouse Insurance from investors. As a key executive, he allegedly participated in providing false assurances about the company's financial health, leading to significant investments based on misleading data. This deception is said to have contributed heavily to the financial collapse of Lighthouse Insurance, leaving many stakeholders in a precarious position.

​

The impact of these actions was catastrophic. Thousands of policyholders in Florida and Louisiana, already grappling with the devastation of Hurricane Ida, found themselves without the insurance coverage they had relied upon. The alleged misrepresentations by Menendez and his colleagues meant that many were left to face massive financial losses without the support of their insurance policies.
