Willis Towers Watson poaches head of strategy from Generali Asia

Broker Willis Towers Watson has appointed Kevin Angelini as head of strategy in its insurance consulting and software business in Asia Pacific.

Based in Hong Kong, Angelini reports to Richard Collis, managing director for the insurance consulting and software business in Asia Pacific.

Angelini joins WTW from Generali Asia, where he most recently served as head of strategy and business development and was a key member in building its Asia regional operation by creating the region's strategy and M&A division and leading new market-entry initiatives. While at Generali, Angelini also worked in China, Thailand and Italy.

In his new role, Angelini will be responsible to further grow WTW's insurance consulting business, offering wider strategy consulting services including opportunity assessment, competitive landscape and benchmarking, new geography and product line strategy, as well as M&A target screening, selection and execution.

Collis commented: "Having Kevin on board demonstrates Willis Towers Watson's commitment to serving clients with additional strategy consulting services. His experience will bring real added-value to the company and to our clients as we look to tap these new opportunities."
