“The team at Qatar Re are experts in what they do, taking innovative approaches to their risk and analytical capabilities. It’s a testament to the team’s skill and dedication that they maintain excellent, long-standing relationships with their clients and partners,” commented Malloy on his appointment. “I am looking forward to working with Michael and the rest of the board and contributing to Qatar Re’s continued growth and success.”
“We are delighted to welcome William to our board, he is an eminent professional and has outstanding leadership experience combined with a deep understanding of the industry,” said QIC Global CEO Michael van der Straaten. “His expertise and market insight will be a major asset to our organisation and his addition will help ensure that Qatar Re continues to be a stable and profitable business.”
