Former TMK team launches marine division at MGA Globe Underwriting

Globe Underwriting, a UK based managing general agent (MGA), has created a new marine division, led by Peter Rogers as head of marine and David Dymond as head of underwriting.

The new division will initially focus on UK and international marine liability risks.

Prior to joining Globe Underwriting, its current marine team worked together for nearly two decades at Tokio Marine Kiln (TMK), and International Transport and Maritime Underwriting.

The executives report to CEO Gary Corke.

"Peter and David are recognised experts in the marine market and, alongside their specialist team, are the ideal candidates to launch our new division," Corke said.

"They will initially focus on the marine liability risks with a view to expand into areas, such as cargo or hull, which dovetail with their experience and in which we see opportunity for growth. We have significant aspirations in this market and I am certain that our new offering will swiftly gain traction under Peter and David’s leadership."

Rogers added: "We will offer a suite of bespoke products for companies operating within the transport and logistics sector as well as for ports and terminals. We are confident that this new offering will provide clients and their brokers with more appropriate and comprehensive cover and we look forward to working with them to develop solutions which can better protect their operations."
