RiverStone International has appointed Costas Miranthis as independent non-executive director to the group board and Neil Taylor as group chief investment officer.
Miranthis joins the acquirer and reinsurer of legacy and discontinued insurance business with over 30 years’ experience in the financial and insurance industries.
He most recently held the position of president and CEO of Partner Re for 13 years, and serves on the boards of Hiscox, Pacific Life Re and the Argus Group.
