Markel adds JLT trade credit, political risk underwriter in Singapore
Specialist insurer Markel International has appointed Lee Zong Wen as assistant underwriter in its trade credit and political risk team in Singapore.
Zong Wen joins Markel from JLT, where since 2016 he was senior executive broker for the credit, political and security risks team. Prior to this, he was an executive account manager at Coface in its Singapore branch.
In his new role, Zong Wen will be responsible for servicing client accounts as well as supporting the existing underwriters and senior risk analysts, Dillon Matthews and Nick Davies, in growing the trade credit and political risk book in Singapore and the Asia Pacific region.
Adrian Jones, head of strategy for trade credit in Asia and Middle East, commented: “Zong Wen will be a great addition to the team in Singapore and his appointment is a reflection of our running success in building on our presence in the region.
"His previous roles at JLT and Coface have given him a solid foundation in trade credit and political risk insurance and we are confident his support to Dillon and Nick will be invaluable as the team continues to grow the book in Singapore and expand further into Asia Pacific.”
