Search ArticlesNeil Eckert to lead Willis Re after Conduit departure
Reinsurance News By Sep 09, 2026 Share Willis Re has named Neil Eckert (pictured) as chief executive officer. The appointment lands three weeks after Willis Re acquired BMS Re's US operations and on the same day Conduit Re named Eckert's successor. He will join upon completion of his contractual obligations at Conduit, where he steps down on March 1, 2027.
Conduit Re names Aspen's Christian Dunleavy as new CEO
Reinsurance News By Sep 09, 2026 Share Conduit Re has named Christian Dunleavy (pictured) as chief executive officer, effective March 1, 2027. Dunleavy was group president of Aspen Insurance Holdings and chief executive of Aspen Bermuda when Sompo Holdings acquired the business for US$3.5 billion in February. Neil Eckert, who co-founded Conduit in 2020, steps down on the same date. Dunleavy spent a decade at Aspen. He joined as global head of property catastrophe reinsurance in 2015.
Critical infrastructure clauses are cyber's neglected boundary question
Reinsurance News By Sep 08, 2026 Share The cyber reinsurance market has no consistent standard for how critical infrastructure exclusion clauses are written, interpreted, or applied. A Lockton Re report published at the Monte Carlo Reinsurance Rendez-Vous puts a number on the problem. Its modelling shows a 15-percentage-point swing in industry loss ratios at the 1-in-50 return period, based on how those clauses are drafted.
Non-peak perils cross US$100bn - and the reinsurance maths no longer works
Reinsurance News By Sep 07, 2026 Share In 2025, for the first time, insured losses from non-peak perils crossed US$100 billion in a single year. Munich Re put the figure at US$104 billion at the Monte Carlo Rendez-Vous. That is not just a record. It signals a permanent shift in the scale of frequency-driven losses. Non-peak perils, including hailstorms, floods, severe convective storms, and wildfires, were once treated as attritional risks whose individual events were manageable.
The US$50bn data-centre problem reinsurers must solve before writing the risk
Reinsurance News By Sep 07, 2026 Share A single AI data-centre campus can cost up to US$50 billion to replace. That figure, from Swiss Re Institute's Sigma 3/2026, is not a projection. It is a present-day underwriting reality the reinsurance market has barely begun to price.
Parametric moves beyond weather as Howden Re builds dedicated practice
Reinsurance News By Sep 07, 2026 Share Parametric reinsurance allocations reached record levels in 2026 despite the softest traditional market in a decade. The pattern points to a structural shift: cedants are buying parametric as a standing component of programme design, not as a fallback when traditional capacity disappears.
Reinsurance moves: Marsh Re, Conduit Re, Howden Re
Reinsurance News By Sep 07, 2026 Share Five appointments across the reinsurance broking and underwriting markets arrive as Monte Carlo week opens and the 2027 renewal cycle takes shape. The moves span global broking leadership at Marsh Re, a three-person property underwriting build-out at Conduit Re, and programme distribution in Europe's fast-growing managing general agent market.
Record capital obscures reinsurance's narrowing margin
Reinsurance News By Sep 07, 2026 Share Reinsurance pricing is falling at its fastest pace in over a decade, but the economics tell a different story. The economic value-added (EVA) spread for the global sector was near break-even by mid-2026, even as reported returns on equity stayed positive and accounting metrics looked healthy. The divergence between those headline numbers and the underlying economic position is the central concern of Howden Re's September pre-renewals report.
Calm loss year in APAC hides earnings pressure building beneath it
Reinsurance News By Sep 07, 2026 Share Property catastrophe rates across Asia-Pacific fell 10% to 20% at January renewals, and combined ratios for major regional reinsurers stayed below 100% in 2025. On the surface, the APAC reinsurance market looks stable. Fitch Ratings, in its Asian Reinsurance Monitor, argues the surface is misleading. The rating agency's central concern is that lower catastrophe losses in the first half of 2026 may be masking weakening underlying margins.

He began his career at Willis in Lisbon in 2010 and brings more than 12 years of reinsurance experience across treaty and facultative business.
