Adrian Lynch set to join Artex from Aon

Artex Risk Solutions has appointed Adrian Lynch as executive vice-president North America, effective March 2021.

In this newly expanded role, Lynch will be responsible for the oversight and growth of Artex’s captive management offices across the US, Bermuda and the Cayman Islands.

He will report to Jennifer Gallagher, president of Artex North America.

Lynch will join Artex after fulfilling his contractual obligations to Aon captive and insurance management.

He has served as captive strategy leader for the Americas and managing director of Aon Cayman for the past seven years.

As part of this transition, Kevin Heffernan, executive vice-president, has announced his plans to retire from Artex in March next year.

Heffernan has been with Artex for 15 years in a number of operational and domicile management roles.

For the past 14 months, Heffernan has led captive operations across the US while overseeing day-to-day operations in our Mesa office.

Artex thanked Heffernan for his “innumerable contributions” and wished him well on the next stage in his life’s journey.

Commenting on Lynch's appointment, Gallagher said: “Adrian Lynch brings us valuable expertise and is a proven leader in the captive insurance marketplace.”

“Our growth strategy will be enhanced by his strong history in business development and sales. He is a great fit for our culture and I’m looking forward to working alongside him as we continue to build our enterprise,” she added.

Last November, Lynch, who is a deputy chair of the Insurance Managers Association Cayman (IMAC), discussed with Captive Insurance Times about what the association is currently working on as well as developments in the Cayman captive insurance market.
