The new team will strengthen  Dual Europe’s existing cyber expertise, located in Germany, Italy, Spain, Switzerland, Austria and the Nordics.

Khodabakhsh said: “We are absolutely delighted to welcome our new colleagues to  Dual. In their previous roles with some of the world’s leading cyber carriers, they have all had a significant impact on the development of the cyber market and I am confident that they will help us deliver a step change in our Cyber offering. The new team structure means we are strongly positioned to achieve our ambitious growth plans through the delivery of market leading products.”

Olaf Jonda, CEO of  Dual Europe, added: “At  Dual, our goal is to offer the best environment for entrepreneurial talent and being able to attract underwriters of this calibre is testament to our success. All our new colleagues bring a wealth of experience and are highly respected in the cyber market. Cyber is increasingly important and we have seen significant change over the last few years creating very real opportunities for growth. So we can make the most of those opportunities, we will continue to look for new talent in Cyber as well other business lines across the region.”
