HDI Global Specialty SE has entered the Private Medical Insurance (PMI) market with the appointment of underwriter Ben Haden.
It’s hoped the move will help extend HDI Global Specialty’s Accident & Health presence, and includes international PMI.
Haden brings over 20 years’ A&H experience, including various underwriting roles at AXA, Collinson Group and most recently Generali Global Health, where he was responsible for the Italian insurer’s global IPMI portfolio.
HDI Global Specialty’s move into international PMI is part of a longer-term growth plan which is designed to diversify its portfolio by product, geographical scope, production and distribution.
“HDI Global Specialty is on a path of significant controlled growth, and our Accident & Health line is a key part of this,” said A&H underwriting manager Kieran Morrin.
“Ben has an excellent reputation in the IPMI market and his appointment is another step of our planned expansion.”
Commenting on his appointment, Haden added, “I’m pleased to be joining HDI Global Specialty’s A&H team, especially at a time when it’s looking to grow its footprint in the market.”
