Fusion Specialty eyes expansion in Southern Europe with key DUAL M&A hire

Fusion Specialty Europe has launched a new branch in Madrid with a senior hire from DUAL M&A to drive its expansion in Southern Europe.

Filippo Cibin (pictired)has been appointed as partner. He will lead the expansion of Fusion into Southern European, as part of its continued growth strategy across European insurance markets.

He joins Fusion after almost six years at DUAL M&A, where he was most recently vice president responsible for Southern Europe.

Fusion expects his appointment to strengthen its ability to provide local, cross-continental and innovative insurance solutions primarily for small to mid-market M&A transactions, including its M&A Tech solution: Mio (M&A Insurance Online for M&A and Real Estate transactions).

Katherine Simmonds, CEO, Fusion International, said: "We are delighted to welcome Filippo on board as the leader of Fusion’s Madrid Branch and Southern Europe. The expansion into Southern Europe represents Fusion's commitment to innovation and responsiveness to evolving market opportunities. Filippo joins Fusion with a proven track record and specialist knowledge and brings with him a strong foundation for Fusion’s future success in the region.”

Cibin commented: "I am honoured to join Fusion. Having the opportunity to lead the expansion of Fusion’s business into the vibrant Southern European market is incredibly exciting. I look forward to leveraging my expertise and network to build strong partnerships, deliver exceptional solutions, and to drive success for Fusion’s colleagues, brokers and partners."
