Markel appoints professional indemnity head

Specialist insurer Markel has appointed Bhavik Desai as head of professional indemnity.

Desai succeeds David Sawyer who has become managing director of professional and financial risks, which is now part of the newly created specialty and financial lines division, headed by James Hastings.

Sawyer said: “With PFR now being part of the larger SFL division we will be looking to explore development opportunities across this business group and more widely across Markel.

“Bhav takes over a team that is fundamental to the continuing success of PFR and the larger division. It is great that he now has the opportunity to take on the leadership of the team and help develop the business and products in this class.”
