Chubb promotes John Latter to claims director for Europe, Eurasia and Africa

Chubb has named John Latter as senior vice president and claims director for Europe, Eurasia and Africa.

Latter was previously claims director for the UK and Ireland and continues to oversee this role until a successor is named. He joined Chubb three years ago from Zurich where he held a number of senior claims roles with both UK and international responsibilities.

He assumes overall responsibility for the strategy and delivery of Chubb's claims services across these regions and replaces Julie Chalmers, who is leaving the company. He will work closely with Chalmers to ensure a seamless handover.

Latter is based in London and reports to David Furby, senior vice president of Chubb Group and regional president for Chubb in Europe, and to Nandini Mani, executive vice president of claims for overseas general insurance.

Furby praised Latter’s track record within claims over many years. “His insights and leadership will help to continue to deliver a superior experience for our customers and strengthen further our award-winning claims service across both these regions," he said.
