This strategic move showcases LM Re's intent to expand its presence in both Australia and New Zealand, marking a crucial milestone in the company's regional growth plans.
Previously, ARUS managed the portfolio for Australasia through Lloyd’s. The transition signifies a stronger footing and direct intervention by LM Re Australia in the reinsurance landscape.
The company emphasized that “Liberty Mutual Re's new Australian team will creatively enhance our existing operations and reinforce our pledge to clients. This endeavor aligns seamlessly with our mission to offer bespoke reinsurance solutions tailored to our significant markets,” the firm announced.
Embarking on his new role in October, Mr. De La Mare will serve as Head of Australia and New Zealand. He will directly report to James Green - Head of Treaty Property London and Asia-Pacific COO John McCabe.
His incumbency is seen as instrumental as LM Re forges ahead with its plans in the region. Prior to this recent move, Mr. De La Mare held the position of property head at Aon Reinsurance Australia.
With over 15 years under his belt in the reinsurance arena, Mr. De La Mare has a notable background in catastrophe risk modelling and strategic reinsurance placements, according to his LinkedIn profile.
James Green reflected on the appointment, saying, “Mark’s integration into LM Re is a win. His extensive insights and expertise in the industry will be crucial as we enhance our operational capabilities in Australia and New Zealand. The rapport we've built in the region will only grow stronger under his stewardship.”
This strategic expansion follows LM Re’s recent steps to broaden its international footprint, a move initially reported by InsuranceNews.com, setting its sights on providing tailored solutions and fostering closer client relations in emerging markets.
