Sonja Rottiers has been appointed CEO of Lloyd’s Insurance Co. in Brussels, Lloyd’s of London announced Thursday.
Ms. Rottiers will also serve as Lloyd’s regional director for Europe, Middle East and Africa, Lloyd’s said in a statement.
Ms. Rottiers most recently served as a nonexecutive board member of ING Belgium and as a member of the board of directors for Kinepolis NV Group and Leasinvest Real Estate. Previously, she was chief finance and data officer and executive member of the board of directors of Axa SA unit Axa Belgium.
Britain’s decision to exit the European Union will change how London market insurers and brokers service EU policyholders, but many firms have established separate entities to ensure they will still be able to write the business. To ensure that it will continue to have access to EU business, Lloyd’s established a subsidiary in Brussels.
“Lloyd’s Brussels marks a major milestone for Lloyd’s,” said Lloyd’s CEO John Neal in the statement announcing Ms. Rottiers’ appointment. “Now that it is already placing and processing European business, Sonja will focus on ensuring that it is also well positioned to grow as a customer-focused European insurance company.”
