Aspen appoints new group chief risk officer

Bermuda-based re/insurer Aspen Group has appointed Tim Aman as its new group chief risk officer.

Aman replaces Richard Thornton who was named the group chief operating officer (COO) in December 2016, in addition to his responsibilities as head of strategy.

Before joining Aspen in February 2017, Aman was principal of Broctuary, an independent Florida-based consultancy which he established in 2016 specialising in actuarial, broking and risk management.

Prior to this, he was chief risk officer at Montpelier for eight years and before that, he was the managing director for Guy Carpenter’s global accounts and Latin America and Caribbean reinsurance broking teams. Aman had previously been an actuarial pricing officer at St Paul Reinsurance.
