A stated mandate is a firm’s description of itself and was true of the page on the day it was read; firms widen and narrow what they will look at without updating the site. Aquiline Capital states that it will take either a controlling or a minority stake. The team figure counts the people the firm shows on one team page, so it is a floor rather than a headcount: firms that split their team across tabs or load it in pages will read low. Nothing here is a commitment by Aquiline Capital to consider any particular business, and nothing on this page is represented as being for sale.
