Cunningham Lindsey International appoints CEO

Cunningham Lindsey has appointed Mark Thompson as global head of major and complex loss (MCL) and chief executive officer (CEO) of Cunningham Lindsey International.

Thompson succeeds Rupert Travis who retired at the beginning of this year. He previously served as head of major and complex loss and partner of forensic advisory services.

Jane Tutoki, global CEO of Cunningham Lindsey, said: “We’re very pleased that Mark has taken up this role. Insurers, brokers and policy holders are increasingly looking for a proactive loss management and a project managed approach to large losses where the right expertise is brought to bear and the various stakeholder’s expectations in the claim process are exceeded. Getting the right resources in the right place at the right time is vital.

“Mark has over 20 years’ experience in managing both loss adjusting and insurance forensic accounting practices; and he has a strong understanding of the London market from his time as managing director of Xchanging Claims Services. He has managed large complex losses in the USA, Europe, Africa, Asia and Australasia.

“His extensive international experience with large complex claims, whether it be property, business interruption, mining, power, product recall or fidelity claims, gives him fantastic insight into dealing with this end of the market. This insight, will, no doubt, help us to grow our MCL team and deliver an improved service to insurers, reinsurers, brokers and corporates.”

Thompson said: “Over the two decades I have been working in this sector, the demands on loss adjusters have increased significantly requiring that losses are mitigated and settlement timelines shortened – all as cost effectively as possible. Loss adjusters have developed more sophisticated approaches to dealing with these complex losses – and no-one demonstrates that better than Cunningham Lindsey.”
