Lockton Re swoops on Aon to target 'lack of choice' in reinsurance broking
Lockton Re, the global reinsurance business of broker Lockton, has hired an Aon executive to further expand its speciality capabilities, targeting the complex political risk and credit class.
Eran Charit will join Lockton Re's specialty division later this year.
Charit has been in the political risk and credit insurance broking space for over 10 years, most recently as head of structured & capital solutions at Aon. Prior to that, he started his broking career at Gallagher.
"The market lacks choice and is looking for a genuine alternative reinsurance broking capability to challenge the status quo," said Paul Upton, head of the speciality division at Lockton Re. "We are excited to provide that through a unique combination of a deep technical understanding of political risk and credit exposures, reinsurance expertise and the support of our powerful structuring and modelling capabilities.”
Keith Harrison, CEO international at Lockton Re, added: “Our Specialty division has seen great growth over the last 18 months across multiple classes of business but there is a real need to provide a differentiated approach and solve for the lack of choice in reinsurance advice and broking in the ever important and complex political risk and credit class.
"With the addition of Eran and other recent hires, our offering at Lockton Re provides buyers with a respected alternative and a new perspective. We look forward to welcoming Eran to Lockton Re later this year.”
