Global specialty re/insurer SiriusPoint has announced the appointment of Inmaculada Gonzalez (pictured above) as global head of ceded reinsurance, effective Aug. 19.
Based in New York, Gonzalez will report to David Govrin, group president and chief underwriting officer. She will oversee the execution of SiriusPoint’s global ceded reinsurance strategy and manage the global ceded team.
Gonzalez will succeed Habib Kattan, who will leave SiriusPoint on Dec. 31 following a transition period.
Gonzalez brings 22 years of experience in the reinsurance industry. She joins from AXIS Capital, where she served as deputy global head of ceded reinsurance, managing a $5 billion global portfolio. Prior to that, she was senior reinsurance officer in the global ceded division of AIG.
“Reinsurance is a core part of SiriusPoint’s underwriting and capital management strategy, and we are committed to deepening our relationships with existing and new global reinsurance partners,” Gorvin said. “I am delighted to welcome Inmaculada to the team. Her depth of knowledge and strong network of relationships across the industry makes her the ideal person to support SiriusPoint’s ‘underwriting first’ strategy and drive success for years to come.”
Govrin also acknowledged Kattan’s contributions and support in redesigning the ceded reinsurance function at SiriusPoint, extending best wishes for his future endeavors.
A few months ago, the global re/insurer also announced the appointment of Susan Cross as board director. Her addition brings the total number of board members to 10.
Cross has over 40 years of experience in the reinsurance industry, focusing on developing and leading actuarial and analytical functions to support global growth.
