AEGIS Managing Agency Ltd, the Lloyd's managing agency for AEGIS Energy Syndicate 1225, has appointed Stuart Davies as managing director.
Davies's appointment – along with other recent energy team appointments – will help ensure that the syndicate continues to develop as a lead underwriter in both onshore and offshore energy.
Davies has worked in insurance – including the Lloyd's market and a leading accountancy firm – for 16 years, most recently as operations director at Highway Insurance Holdings PLC.
Before to this, Davies worked as claims director at Highway, finance director at Ockham Personal Insurance Agency Ltd. and finance manager at Syndicate 37.
Alan J. Maguire, President & CEO of AEGIS Insurance Services, the US managing agent, said: “We're looking forward to Stuart's contributions and we're confident his operational and financial experience will help drive the development of the syndicate.”
“I am delighted to join AEGIS,” said Davies. “In a changing and increasingly regulated market place, AEGIS is a unique global energy operator whose mutual status gives it a very different approach. My major challenge will be to build AEGIS's position in the London market.”
Davies's appointment has been approved by both Lloyd's and the Financial Services Authority.
