As CEO, Newman will lead all aspects of CFC’s underwriting business based in London, including the company’s growing data, technology and operations functions.
He succeeds founder Dave Walsh, who will assume the role of Group CEO where he will oversee the operations for CFC’s global offices.

“This appointment is a natural progression for both Graeme and for CFC and we couldn’t be more excited about the future of the business under his leadership.”
Newman added: “It is an incredibly exciting time at CFC as we embark on an ambitious, technology-driven roadmap.
