MS Amlin Underwriting Limited (MS AUL), the Lloyd’s re/insurer, has appointed Andrew Carrier as chief executive officer, effective Jan. 1, 2023.

Carrier currently serves as MS AUL’s chief underwriting officer. Before MS AUL, he spent six years at Everest Re, where he was responsible for the firm’s London Market, Continental Europe and Asia Pacific reinsurance operations. His career also includes serving as group CUO at Argo for seven years and more than two decades at Kiln.

Carrier succeeds Johan Slabbert, who has been appointed as CEO of MSIG Holdings (USA) Inc. In this newly created role, Slabbert will be responsible for driving forward the U.S. growth strategy of Mitsui Sumitomo Insurance (MSI) – MS AUL’s parent company – as it seeks to build on its growing domestic foundations following the acquisition of Transverse LLC in August this year, which is still subject to regulatory approval.

Slabbert joined MS AUL as a non-executive director and chairman of the board in May 2020, before assuming the CEO role later that year. He has been working within the MSI group since 2017, originally as chairman of Mitsui Sumitomo Insurance Company (Europe) Ltd. He began his career at AIG before joining Chaucer Limited as CFO, where he was also CEO for two years, and served as operating partner and CEO of Augustus Specialty LLC.

Slabbert will remain with MS AUL until the end of the year to support a smooth transition and regulatory handover.

Both appointments are subject to regulatory approval.
