HDI Global has appointed Jason Tyng as lead of US captive solutions. The newly created role is part of HDI’s effort to further expand its captive solutions business internationally. Tyng will be responsible for the strategic and operational plans of the US captive team. He brings more than 15 years of sales and leadership experience to the role and joins HDI Global from Amazon, where he most recently served as head of construction risk, handling placements of both international and domestic programmes. Dr Thomas Kuhnt, member of the board of HDI Global SE and responsible for captive services, says: “While in Europe, we are already a leading captive player, building up our presence in the US with Jason is part of our global growth strategy.” Tyng adds: “As a captive partner, our goal is to provide holistic, long-term management across multiple lines of business – be it property, liability, marine or cyber. Our clients often conduct international business. With us, they have the knowledge and confidence to choose a risk management team that will work with them to find the best solution.”
