MS Amlin strengthens European war business with Aon hire

Re/insurer MS Amlin has hired senior Aon executive Brecht van Hoorebeke to develop and grow its war business across continental Europe.

Van Hoorebeke has joined MS Amlin as war underwriter based in Antwerp, Belgium.

Van Hoorebeke most recently served as client manager marine with Aon, based in London, where he focused on risk management, logistics and insurance placement.

MS Amlin's marine team underwrites a range of re/insurance solutions that covers war, terrorism and political risk.

Andrew Wright, global managing director of marine & aviation at MS Amlin, said: “Providing continuity in the face of political violence – which covers everything from strikes to insurrections and civil war - requires deep sector knowledge combined with the capability of crafting tailored underwriting solutions. The addition of Brecht to our team in Antwerp will help us serve the unique needs of our clients and brokers across Europe.”
