05 January 2018 - 12:00AM
Specialist insurer Beazley has appointed John Moy as US marine
underwriter within its newly- launched US marine platform. Mr
Moy will report to Steve Vivian, head of US marine at Beazley, and
will be responsible for underwriting and building the company’s US
hull, protection & indemnity (P&I) and liability business
for the marine and marine construction sectors. Mr Moy joins from
Water Quality Syndicate in New York where he was Chief Underwriting
Officer.
Mr Moy has a wealth of experience gained from a career that
spans the US Merchant Marine, private shipping organizations and
insurance sector, including the setting-up and management of marine
underwriting operations. He currently serves on the Liability and
Energy committees of the American Institute of Marine
Underwriters.
Steve Vivian commented: “John’s depth of experience and
expertise makes him uniquely qualified to build out our hull and
liability portfolio in the US. He has an extensive network
across the marine broking, insurance and client communities in the
US and is highly regarded for his knowledge of the market. I
am delighted that he is joining us at this important stage of our
growth.”
Mr Moy’s appointment follows Beazley’s announcement on November
30th 2017 that it was establishing a US Marine platform with the
strategic aim of capturing opportunities that do not typically get
placed outside of the US domestic market.
Beazley has been a prominent insurer of marine risks in the
Lloyd’s market in London since 1999. The products offered in
the US are available on both an admitted and non-admitted basis,
and are designed to complement the large risk coverages available
through Beazley’s London underwriters.
