AXA appoints head of US life insurance distribution

AXA has appointed Trey Reynolds to lead the life insurance sales in the US, reporting to the head of life business Ron Herrmann.

As the head of life distribution for AXA, Reynolds will focus on sales in the independent channel, including third-party organisations such as broker general agents, wire houses, banks and other non-proprietary organisations.

Prior to joining AXA, Reynolds had been the national sales vice president for M Financial Group. He has previously held leadership positions at BRAMCO, Ascensus, BISYS, and Crump Insurance Services.

Herrmann said: "Trey brings a depth of experience in working with brokerage life insurance, as well as with some of the insurance industry’s strongest third-party distributors. Such relationships are key. Trey’s proven track record with third-party distributors has given him an important operational perspective on the industry that will allow AXA to find ways to increase the penetration of its products to a large group of consumers who are under or uninsured."
