Neon has expanded its Political and Credit Risk team with the appointment of Paul Barrett who joins from Arthur J. Gallagher.
Barrett is the latest of a string of hires for Neon’s Political and Credit Risk team, following the appointments of Anthony Vaughan, Senior Credit Analyst, and Paul Carrington, Underwriter, both of whom joined in late 2017.
In addition to the new hires, Neon is expanding its Political and Credit Risk team offering to include Financial Guarantee and increased tenors for existing products.
Darren Lednor, Chief Underwriting Officer at Neon, said; “last year, we significantly strengthened our capabilities and this momentum has continued into 2018. Our expanded team now offers a greater breadth of coverage with the addition of Financial Guarantee and increased tenor length across a number of products.These changes allow us to provide long-term support to clients in a constantly evolving global political and economic environment.”
Carrington previously worked at Chubb and Euler Hermes, while Vaughan was previously Senior Credit Analyst at Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation.
Martin Reith, Group Chief Executive at Neon, added; “the development of our Political & Credit Risk team and appetite aligns with Neon’s refreshed underwriting strategy of offering bespoke solutions that go beyond traditional parameters. We look forward to working with our clients to deliver these over the next 12 months and beyond.”
