Brokerslink creates new Americas steering team

Global broking business Brokerslink has launched a new regional team to support the continued growth and development of opportunities for its broker partners and affiliates in North America and Latin America, as well as its wider international network.

The team, with representatives from the USA, Canada, Brazil, Argentina, Colombia and Peru, will focus on supporting the expansion of the network and Brokerslink brand across the Americas as well as maximising business opportunities for partners and affiliates across the region, strengthening communications between them and assisting in the development of new niche products and innovative services with Brokerslink’s insurer partners.

The steering team is led by Ariel Couto, the Brokerslink Americas regional manager and consists of Estela Lusky, vice president/account executive international, Alliant Insurance Services, USA; Esteban Sánchez, CEO of Grupo Artai, Argentina; Juan Mario Acevedo, president, Correcol, Colombia; Giulio Valz-Gen, CEO, Contacto, Peru; and Shawn DeSantis, president and CEO of Navacord, Canada.

Speaking on the launch of the steering team, Ariel Couto said: “The team members represent the diverse experience and expertise that Brokerslink’s partners and affiliates have across the Americas but we have a common goal: to build a stronger Brokerslink in this important and strategic region. The formation of the steering team is another important step forward in coordinating our activities and supporting partners and affiliates to identify and build cross border and global business opportunities.”

Estela Lusky added: “The steering team will further strengthen the relationships and development of partners and affiliates across the Americas by creating a sustainable platform for growth and establishing the right framework for compensation transparency, rules of collaboration, IT modernization and reliable data. I’m looking forward to the opportunity to learn more about the organization whilst simultaneously working on Alliant’s international expansion.”

In the last year, Brokerslink has seen a strengthening of representation and capabilities with the addition of Alliant Insurance Services as its partner in the US and Navacord becoming the new affiliate in Canada.
