The Dublin Insurance & Management Association (DIMA) has elected five directors to its board at its annual general meeting.
Stephen Devine, Ann O’Keeffe and David Stafford have been re-elected after retiring from DIMA’s three-year rotation of directors.
Devine, managing director of SCOR Global Life Reinsurance, continues in his role as DIMA chairman, while O’Keeffe, CFO of Aon Insurance Managers, has been appointed chairman of DIMA’s captive sub-committee.
Stafford, who is CEO of ALD Re, will continue as chairman of DIMA’s conference sub-committee.
Stephen Hodgins of Marsh Management Services has been elected to the DIMA board for the first time, alongside Viviana Pascoletti of Berkshire Hathaway Reinsurance.
Pascoletti has been appointed chairman of DIMA’s life reinsurance sub-committee, succeeding Debbie O’Hare who has been appointed vice chairman of DIMA.
DIMA CEO Sarah Goddard said: “I am delighted to welcome both our new and re-elected directors to the DIMA board. [The association] has had a busy and very successful year—due in no short measures to the support and enthusiasm of [its] directors and members.”
“Over the course of the past 12 months, DIMA has spearheaded the Irish reinsurance market’s development of a progressive response to the ongoing delays in Solvency II implementation, working with the Central Bank of Ireland to ensure continuous advancement towards a fully risk-based regulatory environment.”
The DIMA board represents a cross-section of the wide range of association members, including captive managers, life reinsurers, non-life reinsurers and non-life insurers. DIMA also represents life and health insurers, as well as self-managed captive reinsurers.
