Lockton lures Marsh leader to bolster US complex casualty practice

Global re/insurance broker  Lockton has bolstered its complex casualty practice in Chicago with the hiring of a multinational practice growth leader from Marsh.

It has hired Andy Conti (pictured) as senior vice president to lead the complex casualty team in the firm's Chicago office.

Conti has over 20 years of experience with various roles in the industry ranging from leadership, growth and consulting. In his most recent role at Marsh – where he spent 17 years – he was the multinational practice growth leader for the US, where he was responsible for leading strategy and content development to achieve sustained growth of the firm's complex multinational clients.

In his new role, Conti will focus primarily on complex casualty insurance for the Midwest, while also assisting in organic growth – present, onboard, service for large domestic casualty and complex global risks.

"The addition of Andy comes during a time when Lockton is experiencing tremendous growth and further developing our complex casualty practice in the Midwest," said Josh Luther, EVP, growth & operations director of Lockton's Midwest region.

"Andy's vast brokerage and consulting experience perfectly aligns with our needs, and we look forward to benefiting from his leadership in this role."
