Markel restructures casualty reporting lines
Specialist insurer Markel has reorganised the leadership structure of its excess casualty underwriting unit with managing directors Matt Mullen and Colin Shaw now directly reporting to executive underwriting officer for casualty Alan Rodrigues.
Both Mullen and Shaw are responsible for running the risk management excess casualty business within the Markel Assurance division that offers products for standard and hard-to-place risks in the US, Bermuda, Dublin, and London. They will focus on cultivating broker relationships to make Markel a more attractive market, the company said.
Mullen is based in New York and leads the excess casualty underwriting teams located in the US and Bermuda while Shaw is based in Dublin and leads the European excess casualty teams in Dublin and London.
Elizabeth Stewart, senior director, will report to Mullen and now oversee Markel's excess casualty underwriting efforts in Bermuda.
Siobhan Walshe will report to Shaw and oversee the excess casualty business in London.
Rodrigues commented: "Both Matt and Colin have developed long-tenured teams and forged enduring and valuable relationships with brokers in their respective markets. Coupled with their years of underwriting expertise in this space, I am confident they will lead the excess casualty team to continued growth and new opportunities."
