AGAH CEO Chris DiSipio noted Chapman’s “exceptional knowledge of the global accident and health market,” and indicated he would “more quickly enable us to reach our goals for global expansion in insurance and reinsurance.”
AGAH said it “plans to expand its insurance operations to the European, Canadian, Australian and Asian markets. Insurance products for international markets now in development include personal and business travel accident programs for employer groups, as well as accident and specialty health cover for associations, affinity groups, financial institutions and other organizations.
