Christian Stobbs, managing director of Markel Asia said, “Riding on the winds of change, Markel is increasing its investment in Asia Pacific, expanding its local teams and working with local partners to further the reach of Lloyd’s specialist underwriting expertise in the region. We are actively recruiting in our offices in Singapore, Shanghai, Hong Kong and Mumbai and look forward to accelerating our growth in each of these markets.
“In the wake of the welcome Lloyd’s blueprint, we look forward to working with our fellow syndicates to support the advancement of Lloyd’s in Asia. Recruiting and developing local talent is the most important enabler of this and we are excited about the additional investment we are making. Lloyd’s has a track record of adapting and evolving to meet the merging needs of policyholders, an agility founded on nurturing skilled underwriting talent. We look forward to working with our partners to bring Lloyd’s expertise and security to a wider audience.” he concluded.
