MS Amlin AG has appointed Michael Koller as chief risk officer (CRO), effective 20 September. Based in Zurich, Switzerland, Koller joins the global reinsurance solutions firm from Prudential, where he served as group risk director for almost a decade. Other previous roles include CRO at Aviva and Swiss Life, as well as serving as a member of the European Executive Board. The appointment follows the exit of Catherin Farnworth, who has held the position of CRO since 2017. Martin Albers, interim CEO and chairman of MS Amlin AG, comments: “With his deep regulatory knowledge and strategic expertise, Michael’s appointment demonstrates our ability to attract the highest level of talent from across the industry.” “I am confident that he will play a key role as we continue to focus on executing our business strategy, building a global, full-service and diversified reinsurance business, underpinned by strong shareholder capital, that meets the growing needs of our clients around the world,” Albers adds.
