TT Club appoints new Asia Pacific general manager from QBE

Specialist mutual insurer  TT Club has appointed a new regional general manager for Asia Pacific as part of its growth strategy in the region.

Kamel Tlili (pictured) will take up the role of regional general manager Asia Pacific for international freight and logistics insurer TT Club, based in its Singapore office.

Tlili joins TT after six years of leading British Marine’s P&I underwriting division in Asia at QBE. During this time, he focused on the strategic development and diversification of the portfolio and was pivotal in the transformation of British Marine’s presence within Asia.

Tlili is well known in the marine mutual community, having previously spent a total of fourteen years at TT’s sister mutual, UK P&I both as an underwriting director and claims director.

Kevin King, TT’s deputy CEO said: “We are excited to have Kamel join TT with his wealth of marine insurance experience and extensive contacts in the Asia Pacific markets. Kamel is leading a highly experienced, first-class team of underwriting and claims executives and will look to build upon the success the region has had in building and servicing its membership.”

Tlili commented: “TT Club has a formidable reputation among industry leaders as well as specialist brokers for its in-depth knowledge of the prevalent risks, and an unequalled claims service. I welcome the opportunity presented by my new role at the Club to bring both of those attributes, as well an industry-leading loss prevention resource to a wider market within the Asia-Pacific region.”

UK P&I Club, also managed by Thomas Miller, recently appointed Peter Jones to its newly created role of underwriting director in the region. The new appointments combine to strengthen Thomas Miller’s resources in Singapore and underline its commitment to the Asia Pacific region.
