Generali Group general manager Frédéric de Courtois has another role to play.
Insurance Europe has elected the French national to succeed Sampo Insurance Group chief executive & president Torbjörn Magnusson as vice president of the federation. De Courtois will take on this capacity for three years.
“I am honoured to have been elected vice president and look forward to representing the European insurance industry, which makes a huge contribution both to our society and our economy,” commented de Courtois, whose insurance career began in 1993.
“I will work hard to ensure that the regulatory environment for insurers properly reflects their business model and enables them to continue to deliver the best results for their clients.”
Citing the new VP’s “vast wealth of knowledge,” Insurance Europe president Andreas Brandstetter said he is delighted to welcome de Courtois to the important role.
Brandstetter, CEO & chairman of UNIQA Insurance Group, added: “I would like to thank Torbjörn for the huge contribution that he has made to our industry over the last six years.
“He has been particularly engaged in the area of new technologies and how they impact insurers. We would like to thank him for driving these debates so strongly within Insurance Europe.”
