Liberty picks RSA executive as head of casualty for Europe

Liberty Specialty Markets (LSM), part of Liberty Mutual Insurance Group, has picked out a casualty leader with two decades of industry experience from RSA to drive sustainable growth across the business lines in Europe.

Marilyne Furlan is to join LSM as head of casualty, Europe, effective December 2023. She will report to Pierre-Edouard Fraigneau, CUO, LSM, Europe, and will be an active member of both the European Underwriting Management Team and Liberty’s Casualty Global Product Board. Furlan will be based in Paris.

Furlan is replacing Katja Bobrowski who will be retiring in February 2024. They will work together during the transition period.

Furlan joins from RSA where she has held several casualty management roles. She was most recently head of liability lines for Europe. Prior to that, she held liability and D&O underwriting roles at AXA for nearly15 years.

In her new role, Furlan will be responsible for ensuring sustainable growth across casualty lines in Europe and will provide oversight and leadership on LSM’s casualty underwriting strategy and product offering.

Fraigneau said: “We thank Katja for her instrumental support in building and leading our European casualty book and wish her the best in her retirement. Marilyne’s two decades of industry experience will be vital in supporting our strategic growth in the region as we continue to deliver our global casualty ambitions across LSM. She has a track record of high performance in casualty management roles, and it’s great to have her on board.”
