Rokstone, an international specialty (re)insurance MGA within the Aventum Group, has announced the launch of its new Sports & Leisure Casualty division in the United States.
Heading this initiative is Charles Landrum, a professional in the US commercial casualty market with over four decades of expertise in crafting specialised solutions for the sports and leisure sectors.
Landrum comes to Rokstone from Chasgatr Consultants Inc., where he served as Principal Consultant.
His extensive background includes roles as Chief Underwriting Officer at Everest Re, CEO of T.H.E Insurance Company, and key positions at Nationwide Insurance Company and Allied Insurance Holdings.
Anticipating market growth, this specialised MGA has secured A-rated capacity to support admitted business across a diverse spectrum of risks.
