Specialist insurer Beazley has appointed John Moy as U.S. marine underwriter within its newly- launched U.S. marine platform.
Moy will report to Steve Vivian, head of U.S. marine at Beazley, and will be responsible for underwriting and building the company’s U.S. hull, protection & indemnity (P&I) and liability business for the marine and marine construction sectors. Mr Moy joins from Water Quality Syndicate in New York where he was Chief Underwriting Officer.
Moy has a wealth of experience gained from a career that spans the U.S. Merchant Marine, private shipping organizations and insurance sector, including the setting-up and management of marine underwriting operations. He currently serves on the Liability and Energy committees of the American Institute of Marine Underwriters.
Moy’s appointment follows Beazley’s announcement on November 30th 2017 that it was establishing a U.S. Marine platform with the strategic aim of capturing opportunities that do not typically get placed outside of the U.S. domestic market.
