ACE Group appointed Ashwin Kapoor as terrorism and political violence underwriter as it continues to invest in building its specialist insurance capabilities around the world.

Reporting to Piers Gregory, terrorism underwriting manager, ACE Overseas General, Kapoor will be responsible for growing ACE’s terrorism book, working closely with brokers and clients to develop terrorism and political violence programs. Kapoor will be based in London and will focus on the UK and Ireland markets as demand for this type of coverage grows. His appointment takes place with immediate effect.

Kapoor has five years broking experience and joins from Bowring Marsh where he was assistant vice president – war, terrorism and political violence, with responsibility for new business and renewal book development. Prior to that, Kapoor completed the Marsh graduate development program.

Gregory said: “As the international environment remains highly volatile and companies become more aware of their exposure, demand for terrorism and political violence cover continues to grow. Ashwin’s appointment demonstrates our commitment to this class of business and to providing superior service to clients as well as both retail and wholesale brokers in the region and specifically London.”
