Argenta Syndicate Management (ASML), a subsidiary of Argenta Holdings, has appointed new non-executive directors with a background at Lloyd’s, Canopius, Brit and AmTrust Europe in leadership roles.
Rosemary Beaver (pictured) and Nigel Meyer will join ASML as non-executive directors, subject to regulatory approvals.

He currently serves as a non-executive director and chair of the Audit Committee at First Central Insurance Management and AmTrust Europe. A chartered accountant by profession, his experience combines an understanding of auditing and risk with expertise in P&C, specialty insurance, and managing the operations and finances of large organisations.
