Chris Beazley, chief executive officer of MS Amlin AG, will be expanding his role to include all of MS Amlin's reinsurance business.
Mr. Beazley took over the responsibilities from James Few, global managing director of MS Amlin's reinsurance division. Mr. Few is stepping down from his role to join TigerRisk Partners, a privately-held reinsurance broker, as chief executive officer of its London office.
In his new role, Mr. Beazley will take sole responsibility for setting the strategy of the group's reinsurance business and will be supported by Dominic Peters, chief underwriting officer, and Phil Wooldridge as reinsurance lead and joint active underwriter for MSAUL, the group's Lloyd's platform.
Since joining MS Amlin in 2007, Mr. Beazley has undertaken roles within the London marine and reinsurance businesses, launched MS Amlin's operations in Singapore, and acted as head of global clients and strategy for MS Amlin's reinsurance SBU. In 2016, he served a two-year secondment as chief executive officer of the London Market Group ("LMG").
Simon Beale, chief executive officer of MS Amlin, commented, "Since joining MS Amlin over 10 years ago, Chris has been an integral part of the management team. His leadership skills, global experience, and market expertise will be invaluable to the reinsurance team as it continues to drive the business forward to the next stage of its development.
"Our leading reinsurance business continues to be at the core of MS Amlin's offering and our experienced team of senior underwriters and claims experts across London, Zurich, Bermuda, and beyond work tirelessly with our broking partners to deliver innovative solutions to meet our clients' needs."
