WTW’s new hire takes on dual role
A seasoned accountant, Calnon has worked on a wide range of multi-million-dollar complex claims, including several major fires and flood events, including claims relating to manufacturing losses in the Fukushima earthquake and tsunami in Japan. He has also worked as a senior forensic accountant and loss adjuster with a leading claims management company.
Matt Frost, head of risk advisory for Australasia at WTW, said: “Tony has worked extensively across a number of major markets, including Australia, the Pacific, Japan, the US, France, and the UK, and he will work with our lead relationship and account managers to add considerable value to our clients in this highly specialised area.”
WTW’s FACC team assists clients in preparing, quantifying, and resolving large and complex claims, including property damage, stock losses, business interruption, extra expense, contingent business interruption, fidelity/bond/crime claims, product recall, and third-party/liability claims and pre-loss planning and the calculation of business interruption values.
