Swiss Re announced that Ian Haycock has been appointed to the newly created role of chief data officer as of May 1, 2020.
Together with Youngran Kim, who started as the group chief technology officer this month, Haycock will further shape Swiss Re’s digital transformation, said the reinsurer in a statement.
Haycock has more than 32 years’ experience in technology, analytics and operations, including 26 years within financial services. He joined Swiss Re in 2003 as head of Technology for Capital Management & Advisory.
In 2008, he took on the role as head of Enabling Program Asset Management, which was responsible for rebuilding the asset management platform following the financial crisis. Since 2012, he has held the role of chief operating officer for Asset Management.
“Data-based insights are key in facilitating good decision making, especially in today’s ever-changing environment. In this new role, Ian will be refining our data strategy, data governance and data structure with the aim of further strengthening our footprint as a tech-enabled risk knowledge company. Ian will also be responsible for the enabling of new data-driven business models and digital solutions,” said Anette Bronder, Swiss Re’s group chief operations officer.
