we have more than 400 insurance entities under management from all classes of company SPIs, to class 4 on the property and casualty side and all classes of life company. Additionally, our clients are from all around the world. This variety is what makes our work so interesting.


What has been the biggest challenge you have encountered?


I consider myself to have had a very lucky life and I have been blessed with a positive outlook. As such, I do not think I have had many “challenges”. However, my move to Bermuda from London was a very important factor in my career, and I have seen great change in this country. I am proud that I have been part of the development of the industry here.
