Neon makes senior appointment to Bermuda office
London Monday 24 October, 2016
Dwayne Hunt has been appointed to the role of Senior Vice President - Property Insurance in Neon’s Bermuda office. Neon opened a Bermuda office earlier this year to provide greater access to both the local and US markets as the company expands its international footprint.
Dwayne joins Neon, effective 1 December, from his current role as Senior Vice President & Property Manager at Chubb Bermuda where he holds shared underwriting responsibility for their mature excess global property book of business. Prior to Chubb, Dwayne held underwriting roles at both Arch Insurance and XL Insurance in Bermuda, focussing on the North American property market.
With over 20 years of experience of the market, Dwayne will bring a wealth of expertise to Neon Bermuda. His extensive client and broker relationships mean that he will play a crucial role in supporting the expansion of the Bermuda platform and international growth of the Neon business.
Neon Bermuda, opened in June 2016 and led by Chris Fisher, focuses on writing direct and facultative property insurance on a global basis as an approved coverholder for Neon. As stated at the time of launch, Neon is committed to hiring further local talent and anticipates additional hires and new product lines as the office expands. With Dwayne’s hire, Neon Bermuda will now employ four Bermudians in the local office.
Chris Fisher, CEO, Neon Bermuda said:
“I’m delighted to announce the hire of such a well-respected and experienced underwriter to the Bermuda office. Dwayne is a highly regarded local underwriter with strong client and broker relationships on the Island, as well as in the US. His hire demonstrates that since our launch, Neon Bermuda has continued to provide an attractive platform for top local talent.
“The opening of the Bermuda office earlier this year was a strong statement of our bold plans to expand Neon’s international presence and we look forward to working with Dwayne in order to grow our compelling and relevant proposition for property clients in strategically important markets.”
