Aon has been appointed to provide its new investment service for captive insurers to the Noble Insurance Company DAC, the Ireland-based captive insurer of food and beverage giant Kraft Heinz. Aon works with Goldman Sachs to deliver the service, which aims to make it simpler for captive insurers to identify and access appropriate, high-quality and yield-enhancing investments.
Noble provides insurance coverage to the Kraft Heinz Company. Coverage is provided to Kraft Heinz member firms that are domiciled in the European Union, Aon said. Noble is a wholly-owned subsidiary of HJ Heinz Ireland Holdings, which is in turn owned by Kraft Heinz.
As part of Aon’s service, Noble will receive strategic advice, fund research and directed execution services from Aon’s team of investment specialists and practitioners, along with a tailored investment platform provided by Goldman Sachs.
The service, launched last year, is provided by Aon’s Global Investment practice, working alongside Aon’s Captive & Insurance Management Group (ACIM). ACIM works with captives that have more than $175 billion in assets worldwide, while the Global Investment practice advises clients on more than $3.1 trillion in assets.
“It’s great news that Kraft Heinz has added this new investment service to those that Aon already provides to its Irish captive, Noble,” said Tim Currell, partner and head of insurance solutions at Aon’s Global Investment practice. “We are confident that the various features of this service will enhance its investment arrangements and outcomes, now and into the future. We look forward to building on this foundation; the service already has a strong pipeline of interest in both Ireland and in the other locations where we are planning to make it available in the coming months.”
