PartnerRe's board will now comprise five directors, of which three will be independent directors including Pohlchristoph.

Brian Dowd, chairman of PartnerRe board, said: “On behalf of the Board, Jacques Bonneau and I would like to welcome Hermann. His wealth of experience in the re/insurance industry spans 28 years and he brings a breadth of professional expertise that will further strengthen the Board’s depth of talent.”
