Upstart re/insurance broker McGill adds three on top in financial lines

Upstart digital re/insurance broker  McGill and Partners has added three new partners as it grows its financial lines offer.

Paul Morgan has put in 25 years in financial lines with stints at each of the major global brokers.
He was most recently head of the financial institutions team at Gallagher in a career that has focused on tier-one banks, global hedge funds, individual investment vehicles and start-up companies.

Breda Duignan also brings 25 years of experience, most recently at Aon, with a client spectrum across FTSE 100 banks, asset managers, and insurers.

Abel Budd joins from the executive risks team at Beazley, where he was a senior underwriter. He has a background in both broking and underwriting and in his 11-year career has focussed particularly on D&O, employment practices liability, sexual abuse liability, pension trustees’ liability, and commercial crime.

McGill and Partners’ head of financial lines Julian Martin said: “It is fantastic to be able to welcome colleagues of the calibre of Paul, Breda and Abel to the financial lines team at McGill and Partners. Each brings in-depth knowledge and expertise in their respective specialist lines, and we are excited to be able to offer our clients an even wider breadth of capabilities as we help them with their most complex and challenging needs.”
