AXA XL appoints new CUO of London Market wholesale
Re/insurer AXA XL has appointed Dan Curran as chief underwriting officer responsible for the company's property & casualty London Market Wholesale business.
Curran takes over the role from Paul Greensmith, who was recently appointed as regional leader for the UK, to help shape the new division as part of the AXA and XL integration project. Greensmith has also been appointed UK CEO for Catlin Underwriting Agencies and XL Catlin Insurance Company UK.
Curran was appointed head of casualty at Catlin in 2012. In 2015, he was assigned responsibility for the UK and Ireland casualty portfolios, including general liability, US healthcare, employers’ liability and motor liability. Following the re-organisation of XL Catlin’s target operating model in October 2016, Curran assumed responsibility of the casualty wholesale portfolio.
“I am extremely pleased that Dan has assumed responsibility for our London-based property & casualty wholesale business, which is a considerable and important part of our operations at Lloyd’s," said Neil Robertson, chief executive, global specialty. "He started his career some 20 years ago as an Underwriting Assistant on the Healthcare Professional Liability account at Catlin, and today his extensive knowledge and expertise positions him ideally to lead this part of our business.”
