Two UK firms have announced senior appointments as they expand technology-driven offerings in the insurance market.

Augmented UW Ltd., a tech-powered MGA serving the smart-follow insurance sector, has appointed Luke Overall (pictured, left) as head of underwriting.
He will lead Augmented’s underwriting team, shaping the MGA’s technology-enhanced strategy and supporting brokers in building data-led panels that match capacity to risk.
CEO Daniel Prince said Overall's "blend of technical underwriting expertise and deep market understanding" will be key as the MGA scales across new lines and digital infrastructure. Augmented launched in July 2025, initially targeting property and terrorism, with further expansion planned in 2026.
