Kingsway Financial Services is a public company whose legacy & history is in the insurance & warranty industry.
However, Kingsway didn't want to miss out on all the fun in the lower-middle market PE space, so ~4 years ago they incubated a Search Accelerator (KSX).
At KSX, Operators-In-Residence, like Rob Casper, help source, acquire, and grow SMBs. Kingsway's goal is to aggregate a portfolio of SMBs which compounds cash that can be re-invested to buy even more SMBs.
The ultimate example of Main Street hitting Wall Street (or vice versa).
