Lockton Re has named Ed Le Flufy (pictured above) as its new global head of cyber, a role created to support the firm’s expanding cyber reinsurance business. Le Flufy will be based in London and is expected to work with clients and colleagues across international markets.
Le Flufy joins Lockton Re from Gallagher Re, where he spent nearly seven years focusing on cyber reinsurance. At Gallagher Re, he was one of the senior leaders within the cyber team, concentrating on large, complex treaty and retrocession clients.
Prior to his tenure at Gallagher Re, Le Flufy spent over eight years at BMS Group. He started with the firm’s graduate program before moving into roles as a broker and divisional director in global reinsurance. His responsibilities included handling non-marine property and casualty treaty business for a London market client base.
Le Flufy holds a BA in geography from the University of Nottingham, is a Fellow of the Chartered Insurance Institute, and has a diploma in corporate finance from The Chartered Institute for Securities & Investment.
Keith Harrison, international CEO at Lockton Re, said Le Flufy’s addition will strengthen the firm’s ability to deliver advanced solutions and expertise in the rapidly expanding cyber market.
“Leading our cyber team, Ed will drive the further development and delivery of a multi-disciplinary global cyber team that combines innovative risk transfer solutions in both the traditional and ILS markets with advanced cyber analytics and risk consulting expertise,” Harrison said.
Lockton Re has also expanded its leadership team earlier this year, appointing Tom Meyer as head of the specialty division in London and Rodrigo Botti as treaty country head for Brazil.
In January, Lockton Re also appointed Daniel Moruzzi and Matthew Cope as senior brokers in its international property and casualty division in London. Moruzzi and Cope bring experience from roles at Everest Re, Barbican, Ascot, and Aon, and are expected to support the firm’s expansion in casualty and professional reinsurance markets.
Lockton also made several other national leadership appointments across its US industry practices earlier this year, including new leaders in transportation, energy, law, marine, life sciences, healthcare, and construction.
The firm also restructured parts of its US leadership, naming Nick Serrault as US chief operating officer and creating the role of US risk solutions leader, appointing Devin Beresheim to oversee a unified platform that integrates property and casualty with professional and executive risk services.
