Aon invests in strategy & technology talent to unlock new opportunities
Global re/insurance broker Aon has appointed a global life leader of its strategy and technology group from Royal London.
Gary Warman will lead the development and growth of the life consulting capability globally, through leveraging existing client relationships and Aon’s market insights, whilst identifying new opportunities to broaden the actuarial support the Strategy and Technology Group can offer to its insurance clients.
Based in London, Warman joins Aon from Royal London Mutual Insurance Society, where he was finance systems and change director. Warman has more than 30 years’ experience in the life insurance Industry, both in consulting and industry, with significant experience in M&A, capital management and operational efficiency/cost management.
Aon highlighted that life insurers globally are facing significant challenges, arising from increasing regulatory scrutiny, margin compression, capital constraints, and lower barriers to entry, whilst needing to ensure their businesses manage costs robustly, embrace digital developments, and in many territories, address challenging distribution models.
Colin Forrest, chief executive officer of the Strategy and Technology Group at Aon, said: “Having Gary join our growing team highlights the level of investment Aon is continuing to make in the talent and resources of the Strategy and Technology Group. We are delighted to welcome Gary to the firm to build our commitment to serving life insurers, and we know the wide experience and sharp commercial focus he brings to bear will help both drive our momentum and enable better business decisions for our clients.”
