Endurance promotes executive to lead cyber unit

Bermuda-based specialty re/insurer Endurance Specialty Holdings has appointed Brad Gow to the new role of global cyber product leader.

Gow will be responsible for providing overall underwriting direction for cyber offerings across the company's global insurance business. He will report to the CEO of global insurance Jack Kuhn.

Gow most recently served as senior vice president at the company, responsible for Endurance Pro’s professional liability and cyber risk businesses. He has over 28 years of underwriting and product experience.

Prior to joining Endurance in March 2011, he held senior positions with Zurich and ACE USA.

Kuhn commented: "As the cyber market expands and continues to be a critical differentiator for us, I am extremely pleased that Endurance has one of most highly respected leaders in this market directing our cyber strategy.

"Brad has made significant contributions to our business over the last six years, leading our cyber product underwriting and coordinating product development and exposure management across our insurance business. I am confident that with Brad’s leadership we will further expand our presence in the rapidly evolving cyber market, aligned with our company’s strategic business goals."
