Pool Re taps former MS Amlin Lloyd’s CEO as Enoizi exits after 8 years

UK’s terrorism mutual reinsurer  Pool Re has tapped a London market veteran, former MS Amlin Underwriting boss, to take up the position of chief executive officer (CEO) from  Julian Enoizi,  who is leaving the organisation after eight years at the helm.

Tom Clementi (pictured) will join Pool Re in April, subject to regulatory approval.

The announcement follows the mutual reinsurer’s formal review with the objective to develop its strategy for the next five years considering the rapidly changing threat environment.

Clementi is currently a senior advisor to Lane Clark & Peacock. His many years of insurance industry experience includes 13 years at MS Amlin where he most recently served as CEO of its Lloyd’s managing agency MS Amlin Underwriting. Since joining MS Amlin in a strategy role in 2007, Clementi has held various roles including underwriting manager for the marine division, head of operations for Latin America, head of business development and chief risk officer. He was also a director of the Lloyd’s Market Association between 2017 and 2020.

Pool Re said Enoizi is leaving the organisation in “excellent shape” to meet the challenges of the evolving terrorism threat. “We would like to reiterate our thanks to Julian Enoizi,” said Angela Knight, chair of the Pool Re board.

Knight added: “We are delighted that Tom will be joining us to lead Pool Re. His insurance and legal experience, particularly across strategic operations and various geographical areas and underwriting lines at MS Amlin, will be immensely valuable. He is a strong leader and communicator who will further deepen our relationships with the market and key stakeholders, including vital engagement with government and regulators.

Clementi commented: “It is an honour to be appointed CEO of Pool Re, the world’s leading national resilience entity. Pool Re has an extremely talented team and plays a vital and dynamic role in supporting the commercial insurance market in pursuit of greater national resilience to terrorism. I look forward to working with all our stakeholders to continue offering services that respond to the needs of UK business and to building ever stronger relationships with government as we move forward as an arm's length Government body.”
