Lloyds Group AEGIS London has announced the promotion of Tom Prifti to international E&O (errors and omissions) collective underwriter.
Prifti will succeed Martin King, who will retire at the end of 2025 after ten years at AEGIS London and a long and distinguished career beginning at CT Bowring in 1982.
In his new role, Prifti will lead the strategic development of the E&O team, manage a diverse portfolio and provide exceptional client service.
The team is highly regarded for its technical expertise in a variety of fields, including architects, accountants, engineers, lawyers, IT professionals, insurance professionals and affinity groups.
Prifti has been part of AEGIS London since joining the company in 2014 as a claims adjuster, before joining the E&O underwriting team in 2016.
Over the past decade, the executive has built a strong reputation in the market and has deep expertise in both face-to-face underwriting at Lloyd’s and digital trading of Canadian E&O risks through AEGIS London’s Online Quotation Binding Platform (OPAL).
Commenting on Prifti’s promotion, David Bagheri, Casualty Director at AEGIS London, said: “AEGIS London has always been committed to developing outstanding talent from within and Tom’s promotion is a great example of this.
“Tom has been a valued member of the casualty team for many years and his expertise, professionalism and deep understanding of our clients’ needs will help us continue to strengthen our casualty business. We look forward to seeing him take on this new challenge.”
Bagheri added: “I would also like to express my gratitude to Martin for his outstanding service to the industry and his commitment to helping AEGIS London Casualty build a best-in-class team.”
Prifti commented: “I am delighted to be taking over the leadership of Martin, who has provided us with valuable advice and inspiration. Having been part of AEGIS London for over ten years, I am proud of the relationships we have built and the business we have delivered.
“I look forward to continuing to support my existing clients while developing new opportunities across our business. I am honored to take on this role and continue the great work the team has consistently delivered for our clients.”
