Latitude Brokers, acquired in December by Filhet-Allard Maritime, has appointed Matt Cannock as managing director, Singapore. The appointment has been approved by regulators.
Cannock’s appointment is a key component of the transfer of leadership of Latitude’s Singapore office from Tom Fulford-Smith and Charles D’Alton and accompanies Gabriel Lim’s promotion to broking director, Singapore.
“Tom and Charles have been at the heart of what we have achieved at Latitude and we look forward to continuing our relationship as they pursue their underwriting ambitions,” managing director Andrew Brooker said. “At the same time, we are very excited about the new leadership team we have in place.”
Cannock is as a recognised maritime insurance industry figure whose 25 years’ broking and underwriting experience in London and Asia will “lead the team to the next level,” said Christian Bernabe, managing director of Filhet-Allard Maritime.
Lim has been with Latitude since the Singapore office opened in 2016. Latitude described his promotion as “thoroughly deserved.”
