He will work with the executive team with responsibility for administering IGI’s risk management framework including the exposure management and capital modelling functions across the group. He will report to Andreas Loucaides, chief executive officer of IGI UK.

Tsielepis, who has 18 years’ industry experience, joins from Arch Capital Group’s London-based subsidiary Arch Insurance International, where he was chief risk officer with responsibility for key projects such as implementing Brexit plans and working closely with regulators, including the Central Bank of Ireland.
