Formerly president and chief executive of PartnerRe, Emmanuel Clarke has joined the expanded global advisory board of Cytora. The move is designed to support Cytora’s global growth.

Clarke serves on the board of various companies including Intact Financial Corporation, BMS and Compre. 

“I look forward to working with the Cytora team to maximize its impact across the (re)insurance industry, and accelerating a future where insurance companies can materially uplift the volume of risks they can write, at higher decision quality and at a fraction of current cost by leveraging Cytora’s approach to AI and data,” said Clarke.

The advisory board group consists of leaders across the commercial and specialty insurance space and consists of Bronek Masojada, chair of SiriusPoint and formerly chief executive of Hiscox, Kelly Lyles, board member at Convex and Howden Group, Jeffrey Hayman, chair of R&Q Insurance Holdings and former board member of Zurich Insurance Group, John Bruno, president of Xerox and former group COO & chief executive of Data & Analytic Services of Aon, Bill Bloom, former CIO and head of operations at both The Hartford and Travelers, Thomas Huerlimann, board member of Hiscox and former chief executive of Zurich Global Corporate, Adrian Brown, former UK CEO RSA, Karen Green, board member of Miller Insurance Services and Phoenix Group Holdings and Alan Morgan, former senior partner at McKinsey and head of financial services. 

Richard Hartley, chief executive of Cytora, said: “I’d like to welcome Emmanuel to the advisory board. The transformative opportunity presented by artificial intelligence is a top board level priority and it is a difficult area for insurance companies to navigate to achieve defining and enduring success. Emmanuel will benefit our team, partners and clients with his deep expertise across the insurance value chain.”
