Allied World poaches Chubb regional head of claims

Allied World has appointed Stephen Crabb as senior vice president and European head of claims for the global markets claims group, based in London.

Crabb will report to Colm Singleton, head of Bermuda and global markets claims.

Crabb joins from Chubb, having most recently served as the regional head of claims for Eurasia and Africa and the head of political risk and credit claims.

Prior to this, he worked as a claims manager at Beazley.

Julian James, president of the global markets platform, said: “At Allied World we take great pride in providing policyholders with specialist claims professionals and proactive and open dialogue during the entire claims-handling process.

“Stephen’s experience of handling complex and high-value market losses makes him the ideal appointment to build on our proven track record of successful claims handling and ensures that we continue to differentiate ourselves in the market through the high quality of the service that we provide.”
