Brockwell Capital, a recently established UK re/insurance company that covers mergers and acquisitions (M&A) risks, has added senior underwriters Andrew Graham and Alec Goodair to its London team.
The addition of Graham and Goodair completes Brockwell’s London team, which had previously exclusively consisted of Lee Amerigo and Lana Soroko, who launched the company in December 2017.
Graham, who is now also Managing Director of Brockwell, said: “The Brockwell Capital team is now at full strength and our doors are fully open for business.
“Buyers of M&A insurance can now choose a range of products from a team that has written well over 500 transactional insurance policies and has more than 60 years of collective experience in the M&A legal and insurance industries.”
Most recently, Graham served as Senior Vice President, Head of Global M&A Insurance at Allied World, before which he spent seven years in the M&A Insurance Group at AIG, as both Group Underwriting Counsel and Head of the Europe, Middle East & Africa (EMEA) M&A division.
Goodair joins Brockwell from CNA Hardy, where he served as Class Manager for Financial and Commercial Institutions, and has previously held senior positions at Allied World and AIG.
Amerigo and Soroka have also both previously held positions in the M&A division of Allied World, before which they served as solicitors to various law firms.
Graham added: “The environment for corporate transactions tends to be fast moving and we understand the need to have an insurance partner who is nimble, dynamic and flexible. That’s why all of our underwriters are empowered to make rapid decisions.
“Execution is a key factor in the choice of an underwriter, so we constantly strive to outperform the market to deliver a service that is flexible, fast and efficient.”
Brockwell specialises in warranty and indemnity, tax liability, and contingent liability re/insurance, and spans key industry sectors across the UK, continental Europe, and Asia Pacific.
