He most recently served at PartnerRe, where he led the financial risk business for Latin America and Southern Europe. Additionally, he held the position of product leader for the Medium-Long Term Credit and Political Risks (MLTCP) portfolio.

Throughout his career, Schiattone held various underwriting roles in credit, surety, and political risks, with increasing responsibilities, at prominent firms such as Arch Re, Ariel Re, Swiss Re, SACE, and Generali.

He holds a Master’s degree in international economics and diplomacy from the University of Trieste and a doctorate in international finance from the École des Ponts-ParisTech.
