Specialist commercial insurer and reinsurer, International General Insurance Holdings Limited (IGI), has named Vickie Fox as Underwriter, Ports and Terminals, within its London Marine team.
Fox joins IGI from MS Amlin, where she helped establish and develop the firm’s marine trade offering. Prior to MS Amlin, she worked as a broker at AJ Gallagher.
In her new role, she will support the firm’s existing marine offering in the UK as the book of business continues to grow. She will also play a key role in the development of a new bespoke Marine Trade product for the firm that will tie in Public Liability, Employees Liability and Property Damage to IGI’s existing offering.
Fox will report to Mark Trevitt, Class Underwriter, Ports & Terminals and Marine Liabilities, and will be based in London.
Commenting on her appointment, Trevitt said: “Vickie will be a strong asset to the team as we continue to grow our marine book of business and develop our product offering.
“Vickie’s hire is another part of IGI’s continued evolution as an international insurer and a direct result of our disciplined attitude towards rating, reviewing and writing risk with a focus on bottom line growth. IGI’s marine offering and Ports and Terminals product has grown profitably over the last couple of years and we needed an experienced practitioner to evolve our marine proposition further.”
Fox added: “I was keen to join a nimble insurer with a dynamic approach to writing risk. IGI’s approach to underwriting has always impressed me – the company carefully selects its risks, classes and products, and continuously monitors its strategy to adapt to changing market conditions. I look forward to helping IGI’s outstanding marine team to develop its offering further.”
