SRS hires Anna Pereira for newly created ILS role

Strategic Risk Solutions (SRS) has appointed Anna Pereira to the newly created position of senior vice-president, insurance-linked securities (ILS), effective on 1 March.

Based in Bermuda, Pereira will report to managing director Jonathan Reiss, who joined SRS at the end of 2020.

Pereira will be responsible for supporting SRS’s ongoing expansion in the ILS and fund administration sectors.

Joining SRS with more than 25 years of experience in the insurance, reinsurance, alternative risk transfer and capital markets in Bermuda, Pereira currently works as a director and co-founder of MANA Consulting.

At MANA consulting, she specialises in ILS and collateralised reinsurance for transformer entities and fronting carriers.

Previously, she was head of treasury for Horseshoe Group. She has also served as head of captive and insurance banking at HSBC Bank Bermuda, where she was instrumental in leading the bank’s ILS initiative and record growth in Bermuda and the US.

Pereira has held various underwriting positions with Chubb Financial Solutions, Quanta Re, and Everest Re in Bermuda and has experience in financial guarantee, financial lines and casualty insurance/reinsurance underwriting.

Commenting on Pereira’s new role, Reiss says: “We’re so pleased that someone of Anna Pereira’s calibre and experience will be joining us.”

He continued: “She’s joining a best-in-class team of professionals who are excited about the significant growth opportunities presented by current market conditions, SRS’s sterling reputation in insurance company management, and its independence from broker ownership.”

“In addition, SRS has recently added fund administration resources through its acquisition last year of Dyna Management,” he adds.

“Together with Matthew Charleson, who joined us in December 2020; Derek Bridgeman, who’s based in Dublin; and Peter Child, who will join us in July and will be based in Guernsey, SRS is well positioned to be the service provider of choice for growing ILS businesses,” Reiss concludes.
