Global wholesale insurance and reinsurance broker Ed has appointed Ian Wicks as chairman of non-marine reinsurance.

Wicks, who has over four decades of experience in the insurance industry, previously served as an executive director within the casualty division of Willis Re. Prior to this, he co-founded the broking house Harman Wicks & Swayne Ltd, serving as a director for more than 20 years.

The new Ed non-marine reinsurance chairman was also part of the JLT Re Executive committee and was appointed as joint head of non-marine. Wicks was responsible for managing the London-based casualty treaty team. He began his broking career in 1976 at Fenchurch Reinsurance Brokers.

Kieran Angelini-Hurll, CEO of Ed’s reinsurance division, described Wicks as “a true market grandee whose experience is second to none.”

“Ian’s exceptional insight and counsel will further enhance our proposition and I am certain that his influence will have an immediate positive effect,” he said.
