RSA appoints property director for UK specialty lines

RSA Insurance has named Tony Collman as property director in its UK specialty lines business. 

Collman will lead the property business on the risk managed, real estate and wholesale international front. He will be responsible for the profitable growth of the book with a team of over 50 underwriters. 

UK Specialty Lines is part of Intact's Global Specialty Lines, which offers integrated global propositions for brokers and customers with more complex international risks and has the ability to write business in more than 180 countries.

Collman has been leading the property business on an interim basis since December 2023, after Neil Cryer departed the business. He starts his new role with immediate effect.

Collman started his career at Guardian Royal Exchange and has over 30 years of industry experience. He joined RSA in May 2018 as underwriting leader global property and real estate. 

Steve Watson, managing director UK specialty, RSA Insurance, said: “It is great news to be able to announce that Tony has been named to lead our UK Specialty Property business. I have worked with Tony for a number of years, he’s an expert in the property space and is really well respected by colleagues, brokers and clients. He is the ideal person to lead the team as we continue to grow and outperform the market.”
