Oneglobal Broking continues to grow its Asian leadership team with the appointment of Andrew Harris (pictured above) as executive director - reinsurance for its Singapore operation.
Harris joins Oneglobal with over 40 years of international reinsurance experience. He has been based in Asia for three decades, holding roles in senior management and business production for multinational brokers.
As executive director - reinsurance, Harris will take charge of the group’s reinsurance services in Singapore. He will provide innovative capital and placement solutions to cedant natural catastrophe risk exposures impacted by climate change across Asian markets, with a parametric focus. He will also support Oneglobal's rapidly expanding network of offices.
“I am delighted and excited to join the fast-growing and dynamic Oneglobal team,” Harris said. “I aim to enhance its reinsurance capabilities across the Asia region and build on their strong client services, which are well-established across the global market.”
Harris’ appointment is effective immediately, and he will report to Oneglobal’s Singapore CEO, Sirikit Oh.
“Over the years, Andrew has built an outstanding reputation in the Reinsurance sector,” Oh said. “I know that he will continue to provide excellent leadership and services to our clients and staff in the Asia region and beyond. I’m delighted he has joined us at such a critical time for developing our Reinsurance offering in an era of rapid growth for Oneglobal.”
“The Asian Reinsurance sector is a significant market and Oneglobal aim to develop our understanding and offering for our clients,” said Oneglobal chairman Jonathan Palmer Brown. “Andrew’s addition to the team is a great opportunity for us as he has the breadth of expertise and the strategic vision to drive growth for us and deliver the one stop shop service for our global clients.”
Oneglobal previously made a senior appointment for Asia in October, naming Taiwan-based Huichih Ko executive director. The group has also expanded into the Middle East, with the appointment of Matthew Warren as CEO of the region’s operation.
