AEGIS taps former Starr/Lloyd’s exec as head of risk
Lloyd’s insurer AEGIS has appointed a new head of risk, who previously held key roles at Starr Companies and Lloyd’s.
As head of risk, Viren Patel (pictured) will lead AEGIS London’s risk team, focusing on areas such as internal model validation, ORSA (own risk and solvency assessment), and risk reporting.
Before joining AEGIS London, Patel held the role of head of risk at Starr Companies for five years, with a focus on core ERM, internal model validation, and ESG. Prior to that, he held a number of London market risk and actuarial roles, specifically within capital modelling and validation. He also spent a number of years working at Lloyd’s.
Patel will report to Graeme Tennyson, who said: “We are delighted that Viren has joined our team. He brings with him in-depth knowledge of the industry and a wealth of experience. His understanding of the risk management landscape in the Lloyd’s market will support our clients and the wider business. He is an excellent addition to the AEGIS London risk team, and his appointment further strengthens our capabilities in this critical area.”
