MGAA elects three new members

The Managing General Agents' Association (MGAA) has elected Darren Doherty of Pioneer, Jeff Turner of Miramar and Catherine Bell of inet3 to its board. They join existing directors Charles Earle of Arista, James Gerry of GB Underwriting and Nicholas Hales of R&Q who were all re-elected.

“While longevity provides the MGAA board with continuity and a considerable depth of knowledge, new blood is essential to regularly revitalise the leadership team and stimulate new ideas. We are therefore very much looking forward to harnessing the combined skills of our new board to drive the association forward for the benefit of its members,” said Peter Staddon, managing director of the MGAA.

The MGAA also commended its chairman, Reg Brown, by presenting him with the position of honorary life member.

“The board would also like to formally thank Reg Brown who as chairman has been at the forefront of the MGAA from its early days by awarding him the position of honorary life member,” said Staddon.

Votes were cast by full members of the MGAA and the results independently scrutinised by David Matcham of the International Underwriting Association (IUA).

Sian Fisher of OIM, Peter Hubbard of UK General, Keith Stern of Lloyd's and Bobbie Turton of RSA will continue to serve in their roles as directors.
