Chubb fills newly created leadership role in Continental Europe

Property/casualty insurer Chubb has appointed Peter Graswinckel as segment leader for major accounts in Continental Europe.

In this newly created role, Graswinckel will be responsible for delivering bespoke solutions and services for clients and business partners in Continental Europe.

He will also oversee Chubb's major accounts segment leaders across 17 countries and Continental Europe's Global Client Executive Practice. In addition, Graswinckel will work closely with Chubb's regional management team and other major accounts teams around the world.

Graswinckel will report to Suresh Krishnan, head of major accounts for Chubb in Europe, with a matrix reporting to Adrian Matthews, chief operating officer and head of property and casualty, Continental Europe.

Graswinckel was previously global client executive for Chubb in Belgium, Netherlands and Luxembourg, and he has worked in the insurance industry for more than 20 years.

Krishnan said: "This is first and foremost about listening to our clients and Peter's appointment is testament to this. He is highly respected within the industry and among our customers for his knowledge, expertise and insight. We will continue to refine our multinational proposition in Continental Europe as we move through the year, putting customers and brokers at the heart of our decisions and setting the standard as industry leaders."

Matthews added: "I am delighted that Peter has taken this role within our re-named Major Accounts segment in Continental Europe. Under Peter's leadership, and with a focus on dedicated underwriting teams, we can develop even closer working relationships with Major Accounts customers, as we endeavour to exceed their expectations wherever they do business around the world."
