Former AXIS Re Europe EVP Bruno Felix passes away

Bruno Felix, who was executive vice president underwriting of  AXIS Re Europe until September 2019, has passed away at the age of 63 after battling cancer the last few years.

Felix was a recognised figure in the insurance industry, having spent nearly 16 years at AXIS Re Europe, latterly as head of motor line of business. He joined AXIS Re Europe in Zurich in September 2003 and served as the member of management.

His early career included serving as the chief underwriting officer for the Paris branch office of Gerling Global, where he worked for almost 20 years. Felix was a qualified actuary.

Felix spent his final days surrounded by his family and friends in Saint-Jean-de-Monts, Vendée, France.

“Bruno truly loved what he did - creating new opportunities, long partnerships based on trust and respect. He was respected by the market and considered very professional," said his wife Catherine and sons Arthur and Théau.
