Commercial insurer QBE has hired Munich Re’s Alistair Nappin as its new head of outward reinsurance for its international division in London.
Nappin will join QBE next year, subject to regulatory approval, and will report to Stephanie Cryer, chief underwriting officer of QBE International, and will be responsible for the company’s reinsurance strategy in the UK, Europe and Asia.
He brings nearly two decades of insurance industry experience to QBE and joins Munich Re, one of the world’s largest reinsurers, where he currently serves as head of ceded reinsurance and chief underwriting officer of underwriting strategy for its global specialty lines division.
Prior to joining Munich Re, Nappin served as a catastrophe risk manager at Watkins Syndicate for more than nine years and previously worked as a catastrophe modeling analyst at what was then Aon Benfield.
“I am delighted to welcome Alistair to QBE. His wealth of experience and expertise will be a huge asset to our team and I look forward to his contribution to our continued success,” said Cryer.
