Hiscox picks duo for board seats

Bermuda-based Hiscox has appointed Lynne Biggar (pictured right) and June Felix (pictured left) as independent non-executive directors, effective immediately subject to regulatory approval.

Biggar, with over 25 years of experience across a range of sectors, is currently a senior advisor at Boston Consulting Group. She has held several senior global marketing and operational roles, including at Visa, Time Inc., and American Express.

Felix has 30 years of experience and has held leadership roles at Chase Bank, Citibank, IBM, Verifone, and, most recently, as group CEO of fintech IG Group until 2023. 

Lynn Pike and Anne MacDonald will not seek re-election at the 2025 AGM and will step down from the board in 2025, following the conclusion of their nine-year terms.

“Both Lynne and June's deep expertise in their respective areas will be strong complements to our existing board and as the business continues to pursue its ambitious growth plans,” said Colin Keogh, Hiscox interim chair.

“I would also like to take this opportunity to thank Lynn and Anne for their many valuable contributions during their tenure, particularly Lynn's support in chairing the risk committee and as interim senior independent director during 2024, and Anne's work to establish a very effective employee engagement network.”
