Arrow Risk Management has announced a major expansion into financial and professional lines, as well as the appointments of Andrew Wood and Ben Cubitt to oversee the practice.
This new underwriting team will commence operations following the completion of Wood’s and Cubitt’s contractual notice periods. Wood will lead the division, coming to this role as an industry vet who has been underwriting for the class for more than 20 years.
According to his LinkedIn, Wood was most recently a class underwriter for financial institutions at International General Insurance (IGI). He also held previous roles at Hardy, GE Insurance Solutions, and Willis (now WTW).
Cubbitt brings over 13 years of underwriting experience in the financial lines sector to the practice. According to his LinkedIn, and like Wood, he also previously worked at IGI as an underwriter for financial institutions. He also had prior roles at Nexus Underwriting, Ace European Group, AIG Europe, and Claims Management Group.
“Andrew and Ben are two extremely experienced and successful underwriters who are committed to building out a well-balanced book of business over the long-term, and we are delighted they have chosen the Arrow platform from which to achieve this aim,” Arrow Risk chief underwriting officer Mark Harrington said.
