SCOR UK and SCOR Syndicate have announced that Chris Beazley will become chief executive officer from 20th September. He takes over from Stuart McMurdo, who was appointed as CEO of Reinsurance following the announcement in June that Michel Blanc will retire with effect from January 2023. The London-based appointment is subject to regulatory approval.

Romain Launay, CEO Specialty Insurance and deputy CEO SCOR P&C, said: “Our UK platform has historically been and will continue to be at the heart of SCOR Specialty Insurance. With SCOR UK and the SCOR Syndicate, our teams can deploy their proven underwriting skills, both on the company market and at Lloyd’s, to optimally serve our clients.

“I would like to extend my thanks to them and to Stuart McMurdo for their success during his tenure. Chris is a recognised leader, and we all look forward to writing a new chapter with him.”
