Strategic Risk Solutions (SRS), an insurance company manager, has appointed Brad Meindersma as president of SRS managers (Canada), Limited. Meindersma brings a wealth of experience to the role, having previously served as senior vice president for Marsh Bermuda from 2019 to 2022. He was also executive vice president at JLT Insurance Management, among a number of other senior positions, between 2012 and 2019. In his roles, Meindersma worked directly with and advised senior executives from companies ranging from mid-sized to Fortune 50. He has served as the client account executive, a captive board member, captive and commercial insurer setup, and coordinated the AM Best rating process as well as liaising with external service providers for a portfolio of captive and commercial clients. Commenting on the appointment, SRS President and CEO Brady Young says: “We are excited to have Brad join us as we have many Canadian clients in various domiciles, but decided it was an opportune time to have “boots on the ground” locally to better serve our current and future clients based, or with significant operations, in Canada. “We expect an uptick in activity, both new formations and re-domestications, given recent legislative changes and the opportunity to form domestic captives in British Columbia and more recently Alberta. Brad is the ideal person to build and lead our team in Canada as these domiciles gain traction.” Meindersma adds: “The growth potential at SRS is very exciting. Diving into the legislation and coordinating the setup of Alberta and British Columbia insurance management operations is a great beginning. SRS has such a well-respected reputation and growing the business into Canada to provide customised services is the logical next step.”
