Neither TigerRisk Partners nor its soon-to-be owner Howden Group has confirmed the news, but London chief executive James Few is reportedly departing TigerRisk following the major acquisition.
The transaction, which has yet to receive regulatory approvals, is poised to create a US$30 billion GWP (gross written premium) business. In its announcement, Howden said the landmark deal will give rise to a “much-needed” fourth global reinsurance player.
Now, according to several trade publications, Few is leaving TigerRisk. No public pronouncement on the supposed departure has been made as of this writing.
The London CEO moved to TigerRisk in 2019 after serving as global managing director of reinsurance at MS Amlin. His colleagues at the time said they “understand this is an exciting opportunity for his career with TigerRisk Partners” and wished Few well in his next endeavour.
