XL adds to US team
XL Group has appointed Mena Cammett as a senior risk analyst and Dane Mahoney as a risk analyst to its Political Risk and Trade Credit (PRTC) business, which offers coverage for traditional political risk perils.
Both are based in New York and report to Rafael Docavo-Malvezzi, PRTC’s global risk manager.
“Our success in writing political and trade credit insurance rests on our ability to know and understand them,” said Richard Maxwell, XL Group’s global head of PRTC. “Mena and Dane bring considerable research and international business experiences, along with analytical and investigative skills that will help us analyze our client’s risks in new and emerging markets and support our underwriting units in New York, London and Singapore as we craft the right insurance coverage to help our client’s take on new business opportunities.”
Cammett joins XL Group from Pricewaterhouse Coopers (PwC) in Washington DC, where she was an associate for Anti-Corruption & Corporate Intelligence. Prior to joining PwC, Mena held a number of analyst positions at ERGO Emerging Markets Business Intelligence in New York, Global Trade Matters in Cairo, Egypt and at the Overseas Private Investment Corporation (OPIC) in Washington DC.
Mahoney joins XL from the Institute of International Finance (IFF) in Washington DC where he held various research positions in its Asia Pacific and Latin America departments.
