London-based Antares, a member of the QIC Group, has launched a casualty treaty offering with the appointment of Neil Jarman as casualty treaty manager.
Jarman takes up his new role with immediate effect, reporting to Kieran Oliver, non marine underwriting manager at Antares.
Jarman brings more than 13 years of experience to the new role. He will be responsible for the development of Antares’ new casualty treaty business and for recruiting a team to support the realisation of Antares’ ambitions for this class. He joins from Everest Re where he served as senior casualty underwriter.
“The casualty treaty sector is one in which we have identified clear scope for expansion and which will also add further diversification to our business,” said Joe Battle, active underwriter at Antares.
“Neil has a proven track record and has established himself as a clear leader in this class. I am very pleased to welcome him to Antares and look forward to the swift growth of our new offering under his management,” Battle added.
