Allied World boosts healthcare team

Allied World’s global markets division has strengthened its healthcare team with the appointment of Emma Lisi as assistant vice president.

She will be based in Allied World’s London office.

Lisi has over 13 years’ experience in the medical malpractice industry with Marketform where she held a number of roles.

Recently, she had responsibility for developing relationships with cover holders and brokers and growing the UK and international books, both organically and through the development of new products.

Peter Ford, senior vice president of healthcare for Allied World global markets, said: “Emma joins us at an exciting time. As the healthcare landscape is becoming increasingly complex and providers are facing a raft of new or greater exposures, we are expanding our offerings for hospitals and other healthcare organisations in the UK, Asia and Australia.

“Emma’s deep underwriting experience, ranging from individual practitioners to multi-surgical entities both in the UK and abroad, will be valuable as we seek to help our clients navigate these changes and grow our business.”
