Marsh McLennan Agency, a subsidiary of Marsh, has appointed Kristof De Bremme as Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and President of Marsh McLennan, Belgium and Luxembourg, based in Brussels
He succeeds Rebecca Tielemans and will report to Christos Adamantiadis, CEO of Marsh McLennan, Europe.
Adamantiadis said: “Kristof is an outstanding leader who has consistently demonstrated his unerring commitment to clients and colleagues throughout his career.
“With his leadership and the power of Marsh McLennan’s global capabilities, our teams in Belgium and Luxembourg are well-placed to support clients navigate their way through the ever-challenging risk environment and continue to thrive.”
In his new role, De Bremme will ensure that regional clients can access a variety of services and solutions from across Marsh McLennan to meet business challenges. Additionally, he will lead a team across the firm’s offices in Brussels, Luxembourg, Antwerp, and Ghent.
As a Marsh senior leader, he is responsible for delivering market-leading insurance solutions and risk advisory services to clients.
De Bremme rejoined the business in December 2023 as Marsh’s Head of Marine, Cargo & Logistics, Europe, having started his career at Marsh in 1998 as a Senior Client Executive for global marine and energy clients, based in Antwerp, a role he held for nine years.
Before returning to the business, he spent 14 years at AIG in various senior underwriting roles, most recently serving as Global Head of Marine from 2016 to 2022.
De Bremme added: “While globally recognised as major hubs for policy, regulation and trade, companies operating in Belgium and Luxembourg are particularly vulnerable to fluctuating economic cycles and talent shortages, as well as risks associated with cyber threats and natural catastrophes such as flooding.
“I look forward to working with Marsh McLennan’s risk, advisory, and analytics colleagues to deliver the best of the business to our clients in the Belgium and Luxembourg region, and contributing to their success.”
