TigerRisk swoops on Willis Re to grow credit and surety business

Reinsurance broking and risk/capital management firm  TigerRisk Partners has strengthened its global trade credit, surety and political risk (TCSPR) business with new partner hire from Willis Re.

James Loggie will take up his post in 2022 after completing his notice period at Willis Re, where he heads up the TCSPR business. He will be based in London.

Loggie has more than two decades of experience in credit, surety and political risk, having started his career at Euler Hermes before moving to Atradius and then AIG in 2004, where he was senior underwriter. He joined Guy Carpenter in 2009 as vice president, before spending over ten years at Willis Re, first as an executive director of international credit, surety and political risk, and then as a senior director in 2019.

The appointment follows TigerRisk’s recent entry into the specialised class, and the hiring of Aon’s head of TCSPR, Phil Bonner.

Rod Fox, chief executive officer (CEO) of TigerRisk Partners, said the calibre of its recent hires confirms its dedication to the TCSPR business.

“ TigerRisk is expanding an exciting global division designed to complement our strong growth strategy into specialty lines and capitalise on a dynamic competitive landscape,” he said.

James Few, CEO of TigerRisk Partners (UK), noted: “James is a global leader in this space and brings a wealth of knowledge and relationships to the team illustrating our ambition to serve our clients in this important specialty.”
