Liberty reveals next boss of aviation reinsurance
Liberty Specialty Markets (LSM), part of Liberty Mutual Insurance Group, has appointed Hans Towler to the aviation reinsurance team.
Based in LSM’s London headquarters, Towler will report to chief underwriting officer of reinsurance Dieter Winkel.
In his new role, Towler will initially work alongside Chris Rudd, head of aviation reinsurance, who has led the division since 2001. After Rudd retires next March, Towler will assume full responsibility for the division, according to the statement.
Towler has held senior roles in the London aviation reinsurance market for over thirty years. His most recent role was at Willis, where he spent seven years as a member of the senior management team of the aviation treaty division.
Towler originally joined Willis in 1985, and has spent most of the years in the aviation excess of loss team, towards the end as managing of the division. Before re-joining Willis, he worked at Benfield where he also specialised in aviation and space reinsurance.
"Hans is a highly experienced and talented leader with considerable experience of aviation reinsurance," Winkel said. "His knowledge and strategic insight will ensure the division continues to perform successfully."
