“With growth in the cyber market seemingly relentless, and so many of the new entrants and cyber tech MGAs being based in California or here in New York, I’m excited to lead our North American investment in building a multi-disciplinary cyber function that blends the dedicated broking and analytics expertise to best support that growing client base,” Goring said.
The company has also announced the appointment of Ryan Wilkins as a cyber reinsurance actuary based in New York. Wilkins joins the company from Google, where he served as an actuary in the company’s business and risk insurance function, supporting its captive insurance company. Prior to Google, he worked as an actuary at Guy Carpenter.
“Ryan is perfectly placed to establish and expand our analytics specialism in New York, bringing a unique blend of big tech and reinsurance experience, and we are delighted he has chosen to join Gallagher Re at such a pivotal time in the development of cyber risk, exposure and insurance,” Goring said.
