Stonybrook, a global specialist investment banking and reinsurance broking firm, has announced the appointment of Adam Fox as CEO of International, a London-based role.
With over 25 years of experience in reinsurance, capital markets, and global insurance, Fox brings extensive expertise to Stonybrook.
In his new position, the executive will lead efforts to expand Stonybrook’s international platform and support the firm’s US business, especially its trading relationships with the specialist Lloyd’s marketplace.
Over the course of his career, Fox has advised insurers, reinsurers, financial institutions and investors on M&A, structured finance, growth capital, transaction risk and capital optimisation.
Prior to Stonybrook, he served at at Alvarez & Marsal, most recently as Senior Advisor, Global Specialty & Commercial Insurance. He was also a Managing Director of Grenville Fox Holdings and a Co-Founder of Envelop Risk.
Earlier in his career, Fox held senior leadership and advisory positions at Lehman Brothers and Guy Carpenter.
Commenting on his appointment Fox said: “Having spent my career working across insurance, reinsurance and capital markets, I see a significant opportunity to help Stonybrook expand its international platform and connect clients with differentiated capital and risk solutions.
“The firm’s entrepreneurial culture, senior-level expertise and conflict-free approach are particularly well suited to today’s market. I look forward to working with the team to grow Stonybrook’s presence across the UK, Bermuda and beyond while deepening support for existing clients on both sides of the Atlantic.”
Joseph Scheerer, Founder and Group CEO, stated: “I have always admired Adam’s tenacity to both triage opportunities and close transactions. Intense growth while protecting the balance sheet has been a key theme of his career, and the same will apply to our plan for Stonybrook and the clients we serve internationally. 2026 is shaping up to be a year of exponential growth for Stonybrook, with a solid pipeline across our Capital Markets, Alternatives and Reinsurance Broking pillars.
“While many headlines highlight downsizing across Wall Street and reinsurance brokers, Stonybrook continues to hire to better serve its niche with the strongest advice possible. I am flattered by Adam’s commitment to join our firm; the timing could not be better as Stonybrook continues to build its book of business in the UK and beyond.”
