Arundo Re has appointed Guillaume Bergot (pictured above) as non-life underwriter, focusing on the French, Belgian, and Luxembourg markets. The appointment is effective as of this month.
Bergot brings over 10 years of experience in the reinsurance sector, having held roles at Gallagher Re and Guy Carpenter. His background includes supporting insurers, managing general agents (MGAs), and start-ups with reinsurance solutions, as well as technical expertise in risk pricing and actuarial analysis.
Prior to joining Arundo Re, Bergot worked at Gallagher Re from September 2021 to May 2025 as a reinsurance broker. Before that, he spent over seven years at Guy Carpenter, where he served as an actuarial analyst.
Earlier in his career, he held actuarial positions at AXA and Crédit Agricole Assurances (Pacifica), where he worked on statistical modeling, pricing analysis, and portfolio evaluation across property, casualty, and social protection insurance lines.
He holds a master's degree in statistics and econometrics from Université de Rennes I and completed undergraduate studies in mathematics and statistics at Université de Bretagne Sud, Vannes.
Bergot said joining Arundo Re presents an opportunity to strengthen market resilience through a focused and standards-driven approach.
“I’m thrilled to be part of such a skilled team and to help build trust with cedants by supporting them through all the challenges they may face,” he said.
The appointment follows continued growth for the reinsurer, with Arundo Re reporting a 15% increase in turnover, reaching €1.361 billion compared to 2023 figures at standard exchange rates (12% at constant exchange rates).
This growth was attributed to strong performance in non-life and specialty segments across all geographic regions where the company operates.
Arundo Re’s combined ratio (undiscounted) improved to 94.7% under French GAAP, down from 96.6% in the previous year. The company maintained a stable cost ratio of 4.3%, identical to 2023 levels, demonstrating continued operational efficiency.
