Athene Holding Ltd., a life and retirement reinsurance company majority owned by investor and private equity specialist Apollo Global Management Inc., has appointed Scott Campion as Head of New Markets.
In his new role, Campion will focus on expanding Athene’s capabilities into new and adjacent areas.
In a recent LinkedIn post, Campion said, “The unmet customer need for guarantees and income is large and growing, and won’t be addressed with current products and channels alone. As part of this role I’ll be leading Stable Value and Structured Settlements.”
He joins Athene from Prudential Financial, where he most recently served as Head of Bermuda Reinsurance and CEO of Lotus Re. In that role, he was responsible for Prudential’s wholly owned reinsurers, Gibraltar Re and Lotus Re, and for driving the company’s enterprise-wide strategy across captive, affiliated, and third-party reinsurers.
Prior to Prudential, Campion spent 16 years at Oliver Wyman, most recently as a Partner in the firm’s Insurance Practice.
He added, “As I begin this next chapter, I want to take a moment to reflect on the one I’m closing. I’m incredibly proud of the work I did at Prudential Financial, and the teams and capabilities we created together – I’m grateful for those experiences and excited to see what the team achieves in the years ahead.
“I’m looking forward to working with the talented team at Athene as we continue to help drive better retirement outcomes!”
