AXA XL announces promotions in marine business

“The marine industry inherently has some very unique and challenging risks,” said Mike Perrotti, AXA XL chief underwriting officer for marine in the Americas. “That’s why having such seasoned underwriting resources like Brett, Ken, Shawn and Allison are highly valued by our clients. Their promotions are well-earned. Over the last few years, all have played influential roles in building our liability and inland marine capabilities, resulting in profitable books of business. We’re excited to see this momentum continue in 2023.”

Mueller succeeds Perrotti, who was promoted to lead the Americas marine team in August. Mueller will be based in Atlanta and have responsibility for AXA XL’s inland marine business, which includes products to address construction, motor truck cargo, logistics, and warehousing risks, among others.

Musser previously served as US Central Zone marine leader. In his new role, he will be responsible for AXA XL’s marine liabilities insurance businesses throughout the Americas. Musser joined AXA XL from CNA in 2020. He is based in Chicago.

Langenegger previously served as inland marine manager for South Central, and now expands his role to all of the US Central Zone for inland marine. He is based in Dallas and will be a key point person for brokers and clients throughout the region, including Chicago and the Great Lakes area.

Jolls previously served as a senior underwriter. In her new position, she will assume a more strategic underwriting management role for AXA XL’s marine liabilities book across the US. Jolls began her marine insurance career as a recreational marine underwriter before expanding to commercial marine and developing her concentration in hull and liabilities.
