“By combining these teams under Leon’s leadership and Dean’s strategic guidance, we’re creating something more powerful: a UK Property and Casualty and London Europe team that brings together deep market expertise, integrated client capabilities, and a clear growth agenda. This positions Guy Carpenter to compete more effectively, serve clients more comprehensively, and accelerate our market expansion in property, specialty, and emerging risk areas”, said Paul Moody, UK CEO, Guy Carpenter.

“London is a critical hub for our European franchise. Bringing together our UK Property and Casualty and London Europe teams creates a centre of expertise and client relationships that strengthens our competitive position across the continent, particularly benefitting our European based global clients. This is a strategic investment in our future, and Leon’s proven track record gives us confidence in the team’s trajectory”, commented Julian Enoizi, Europe CEO, Guy Carpenter.
