Lloyd’s Market Association makes new board appointments for 2018

The Lloyd’s Market Association (LMA) has appointed David Croom-Johnson, managing director of Aegis Managing Agency, to its board.

The association has also re-elected three board members including Stephen Eccles, chief underwriting officer of Argo Managing Agency, Richard Harries, chief executive officer of Atrium Underwriters, and Matthew Shaw, president of Chubb Global Markets.

All four executives will serve a term of three years starting LMA's Annual General Meeting on May 31.

Neil Maidment, chief underwriting officer of Beazley, will continue as chairman of LMA.

In addition, the LMA has co-opted Hannah Purves, claims director at Markel and deputy chair of the LMA Claims Committee, to the board. LMA said that claims modernisation is currently a top priority for the association and the appointment of Purves will reinforce the board’s broad range of expertise.

David Gittings, the LMA’s chief executive, said: “I would like to welcome David and Hannah to the Board, and congratulate the other re-appointed members. The Board continues to be made up of influential leading figures in the Lloyd’s market.”
