AXIS deploys regional expert to manage insurance business in Singapore

AXIS Insurance, a business segment of Bermuda-based AXIS Capital Holdings, has promoted Nicole Lim to deputy chief underwriting officer, Singapore.

Lim will oversee AXIS’ insurance business in Singapore, along with managing the office’s day-to-day operations. She will continue to report to Rory MacGregor, the former executive vice president and Singapore underwriting manager for AXIS Insurance, who was promoted to head of regional hubs and international distribution last October.

Lim was previously vice president, underwriting, for AXIS’ Singapore office. She joined AXIS in 2013, and has previously held various underwriting roles within Allianz, Liberty and Aon Risk Services.

“Nicole has built a strong reputation within the Singapore market and is a seasoned underwriter with deep expertise across all energy specialty classes,” said MacGregor. “She has helped foster collaboration between our Singapore team and with our other offices, further enhancing the service that we provide to our clients. At AXIS, we place a priority on creating an environment where great talent can thrive, and we are pleased to see Nicole promoted to manage our insurance business in Singapore.”
