The Florida home and condo insurer had a market cap of about $2.19 billion at pricing. Slide Insurance’s stock is expected to start trading tomorrow – Wednesday, June 18 – on the NASDAQ.

A veteran IPO pro said that he had heard that “dedicated insurance-sector accounts” were likely to get most of the allocations.
