Mahoney, who has lived in Bermuda since 2007, continues to serve on the board of O.C.M.L (Oakley Capital Management Ltd.). Most recently, Mahoney served as executive chairman of the broker RFIB prior to its sale to Tysers.

“As Oneglobal’s ambitious growth plans continue, Dennis will bring senior leadership and huge experience to our existing Bermuda operation which has already achieved considerable success,” commented Jonathan Palmer-Brown, Oneglobal chairman. “I have worked with Dennis over many years, and I know his energy and international network, combined with his dedication to delivering for clients and colleagues will greatly accelerate our plans in Bermuda and beyond.”

“I am delighted to have been given the opportunity to join this exciting broking venture. Having worked alongside both Mike and Jonathan for many years, I have absolute confidence in their outstanding knowledge, experience and leadership,” said Dennis Mahoney (referring to Mike Reynolds, group CEO, Oneglobal).

“They are attracting first-class talent around the world, which is more important than ever in the current turbulent times,” added Mahoney. “Bermuda is an exciting and dynamic environment with innovation at its very heart. I look forward to playing my part in Oneglobal’s growth in the Bermuda marketplace in due course.”
