Pro MGA Global Solutions, the independent managing general agent (MGA) incubation division of Pro Global Holdings Limited, has appointed David Goodley as its new Head of Compliance.
Goodley holds extensive experience as a compliance professional, having established his own company, City Compliance, in 2012 which provides regulatory compliance services across the insurance industry, including in particular brokers and MGAs.
Before setting up City Compliance, Goodley held senior compliance positions with Lloyds TSB, Marsh, Barbon Insurance Group and Tesco Bank.
He succeeds Gordon Burrows, the previous Head of Compliance, who is leaving Pro MGA at the end of October.
Danny Maleary, CEO of Pro MGA Global Solutions, commented, “I am delighted to welcome someone of David’s calibre, experience and proven track record of delivery to the Pro MGA team as the new Head of Compliance.
“With over 40 MGAs under our management, and a strong pipeline of enquiries, our clients require best-in-class compliance expertise supporting their ambitious multi-territory, multi-class propositions.”
Maleary continued, “Offering this platform for regulatory compliance and expertise is a key USP for Pro MGA Global Solutions as an MGA incubator because it addresses a critical need in the insurance industry, and helps position MGAs we support for successful growth in a highly regulated market. I know that David will continue to drive further enhancements for the benefit of not only our own business but also the diverse range of customers we serve.
“Lastly, I would like to thank Gordon for his significant contribution to Pro MGA and to wish him well for the future.”
Goodley himself added, “The MGA sector is booming as regards the extent of its participants’ ambitions to be multi-territory entities which plays to the strengths of a trusted partner like Pro MGA Solutions.
“The exciting opportunities for the Pro team for incubating MGAs is significant and I am very much looking forward to bringing my extensive sector expertise to the table as we continue to deliver on our commitment to offer high-quality advisory services to our broad range of customers as they embark on their growth journeys.”
