Hiscox Ltd. announced that Hamayou Akbar (“Aki”) Hussain will join the Hiscox Group as group chief financial officer.

Hussain will join Hiscox from Prudential plc, where he spent seven years; latterly as chief financial officer of Prudential UK & Europe. He sits on the board of the Prudential Assurance Co. Ltd., the main UK insurance operating company.

Prior to Prudential, Hussain held a number of senior roles in the financial services, telecoms and media sectors.
