SCOR Global Life announces the following promotions, with immediate effect:
Paolo De Martin, Chief Executive Officer of SCOR Global Life, comments: "Our plan "Vision in Action" (2016-2019) sets out an acceleration of our strategy in Asia-Pacific, a region with very high growth potential. This development will be driven by a new team under the leadership of Craig Ford, who has been promoted to CEO of Asia-Pacific at SCOR Global Life. With the notable aid of Vincent Lepez and Dion Russel, this team aims to further expand our presence in Asia-Pacific, with a particular focus on the support we can provide to our clients in the region. I would like to thank Marc Archambault, who has decided to leave the Group, for the 26 years he has dedicated to SCOR."
Denis Kessler, Chairman & Chief Executive Officer of SCOR, comments: "These appointments at SCOR Global Life in Asia-Pacific bear witness to the existing pool of talent within the Group and to SCOR's investment in the Region. The new SCOR Global Life team in Asia-Pacific will work closely with the local SCOR Global P&C teams to further develop the Group's presence in this strategic region."
