Hamilton names Moussa Thiam group head of compliance

Bermuda-based specialty re/insurer Hamilton Insurance Group has appointed Moussa Thiam as group head of compliance, tapping internal talent to strengthen governance and coordinate regulatory oversight following its transition to a public company.

Thiam steps up to lead and coordinate compliance activities across Hamilton’s global operations. Based in London, he will report to Gemma Carreiro, group general counsel, and will work closely with senior leadership and teams across the organisation to embed compliance into day-to-day decision-making and strategic ambitions. 

Thiam joined Hamilton as head of compliance for Hamilton Global Specialty and Hamilton Re underwriting platforms. He previously served as head of cross-border and international compliance at Beazley, having held prior advisory roles at MS Amlin, Financial Ombudsman Service and Lloyd’s Banking Group. 

Carreiro said: “We operate in an increasingly complex and interconnected regulatory landscape where maintaining strong standards of compliance is a fundamental component of how we do business. Establishing this group-wide role reflects both the scale of our business today and reinforces our commitment to upholding the highest standards of compliance and governance globally as we support sustainable, responsible growth. 

“Moussa has made a significant impact since joining Hamilton and is a trusted, collaborative leader. This promotion recognises his deep understanding of our business and his ability to work effectively across teams and regions to build a strong, practical compliance culture.”
