Chubb appoints regional cyber risk manager for Europe
Property/casualty insurer Chubb has appointed Kyle Bryant to the newly-created role of regional cyber risk manager, Europe.
Bryant will be based in London, reporting to head of financial lines for UK and Ireland Grant Cairns, and chief operating officer for Continental Europe Adrian Matthews.
In his new role, Bryant will be tasked to bring together Chubb’s dedicated local cyber risk expertise across its European region into a single practice. It will additionally include management responsibility for the company’s cyber risk proposition in the UK and Ireland as well as its London-based wholesale division, Chubb Global Markets.
Since 2015, Bryant has been responsible for the strategy, development and performance of Chubb’s cyber risk portfolio in Continental Europe.
He joined the company eight years ago in New York. Prior to moving to Europe, he held the position of regional manager for technology and professional liability for the US Mid-Atlantic region at ACE, which acquired Chubb in January 2016.
Andrew Kendrick, regional president, Europe at Chubb said: “Cyber risk is rising high on many board agendas. This month’s WannaCry attack has acted as a further wake-up call while implementation of the General Data Protection Regulation across Europe will further raise the stakes for companies and their management teams.
“Bringing together all of our resources into one practice with such an established leader as Kyle at the helm, gives Chubb a powerful proposition. Our aim continues to be to combine the most effective underwriting with best-in-class enterprise risk management expertise to give our clients the comprehensive and holistic protection they need in this evolving risk area.”
