Guy Carpenter has appointed Matthias Meyenhofer as managing director, with immediate effect.
Meyenhofer will lead the firm’s global partners client segment for Europe, the Middle East and Africa (EMEA) and will be responsible for further improving and expanding the range of services provided to its large clients across the region.
In his new role, Meyenhofer will be based in Zurich and will report to Eric Paire, head of strategic advisory and global partners.
He previously served at ACE Group, where he was division president of ACE Tempest Re Zurich. He was responsible for all treaty non-life business underwritten from Zurich.
Paire said: “Meyenhofer’s wide-ranging European experience perfectly matches the scope of our large EMEA-based clients, and coupled with his underwriter’s perspective will help us to develop even greater insight into the extensive range of services they require from a reinsurance broker.”
Nick Frankland, CEO of Guy Carpenter’s EMEA operations, added: “We believe we have found in Meyenhofer a combination of skills, expertise and character that can only help to enhance our large client offering.”
