Reinsurance broking and advisory firm Gallagher Re has appointed Scott Cobon as Head of Strategic Solutions in Bermuda.

Cobon joins from Artex, Gallagher’s specialist in alternative risk management, captives, and insurance-linked securities, where he earned a reputation for his extensive risk management expertise, sophisticated structuring skills, and broad knowledge of capital markets.

Gallagher highlighted that Cobon has held multiple senior roles, demonstrating a proven track record in client relationship management, strategic leadership, and collaboration across regions and divisions.

In the new role, Cobon will focus on driving growth, expanding Gallagher Re’s Bermuda platform, and enhancing its global offerings through capital structuring and investor engagement.

Cobon will work closely with Gallagher Securities (both Capital Advisory and ILS teams), and report to Head of Bermuda, Ben Radford, who commented, “Scott is highly experienced and will be a real asset as we strengthen our capabilities in Bermuda.

“As well as facilitating interactions between Bermuda re/insurance firms, investors, and other industry participants, Scott’s background means we will be able to foster greater collaboration with the wider Gallagher global network, including Artex.

“We remain committed to investing in areas that further complement our on-island product offering and will bolster the team where we see the greatest opportunities for further growth.

“We feel uniquely positioned to service the local Bermuda market and on-island client base with expertise across all product lines and advisory services.”
