ACE boosts terrorism insurance expertise

ACE Group has appointed Ashwin Kapoor as terrorism and political violence underwriter.

Based in London, Kapoor will report to Piers Gregory, terrorism underwriting manager, ACE Overseas General, and will be responsible for growing ACE’s terrorism book, with a particular focus on the UK and Ireland market.

He joins from Bowring Marsh where he was assistant vice president of war, terrorism and political violence with responsibility for new business and renewal book development.

Piers Gregory, terrorism underwriting manager, ACE Overseas General, said: “As the international environment remains highly volatile and companies become more aware of their exposure, demand for terrorism and political violence cover continues to grow.

“Ashwin’s appointment demonstrates our commitment to this class of business and to providing superior service to clients as well as both retail and wholesale brokers in the region and specifically London.”
