AXIS makes new senior hires to grow FI business in London

AXIS Insurance, the specialty insurance business segment of  AXIS Capital Holdings, has strengthened its financial institutions (FI) unit in London with three new hires from CNA, Marsh and Barbican/Arch.

Beth Convey, Julieta Moya and Mark Sutton (pictured) all join as senior underwriters, reporting to Calum McPherson, head of FI in London. The executives will be responsible for deepening relationships with existing distribution partners and exploring new relationships that are "accretive and sustainable", underpinning the long-term outlook and strategy of AXIS.

Convey joins from CNA Hardy where she was responsible for underwriting a portfolio of public and private financial institutions and commercial entities. Prior to that, she spent three years as an underwriter at Neon.

Moya was previously a FI lead specialist at Marsh McClennan where she advised clients on insurance opportunities and placement strategy.

Sutton was previously a FI underwriter at Barbican/Arch Insurance Group where he was responsible for business planning and formulating underwriting strategy.

“These new appointments speak to the growth of our Financial Institutions business in the London market,” said McPherson. “Beth, Julieta and Mark have extensive market knowledge and expertise. Their combined experience and diverse yet complementary skill set, along with their proven ability to cultivate strong relationships, will further strengthen our team.”
