Allied World Global Markets has added two executives to its casualty team.
James Emerton has joined as vice president and Martin Fisher has arrived as assistant vice president. They will be responsible for building out the UK and international corporate business Allied World and will be based in London.
Fisher most recently spent three years working as a senior casualty underwriter responsible for underwriting a large renewal portfolio comprised of domestic, multinational, multi-line and captive insurance programmes.
Emerton was previously at Zurich where he spent nine years working as a senior underwriter within the global corporate casualty and product recall teams.
Denis Burniston, senior vice president of general casualty at Allied World, commented: “Emerton and Fisher are great additions to our current casualty team and will allow us to continue expanding in London and Europe more broadly. They both have extensive experience in the industry and a wealth of knowledge that will be valuable to our growth going forward.”
