New head of investor relations appointed at AXIS Capital Holdings

AXIS Capital Holdings has named Matthew Rohrmann as its head of investor relations.

Rohrmann will be responsible for leading AXIS Capital’s engagement with the investment community and proactively communicating the Company’s vision, strategy and financial story. Rohrmann will report directly to CFO Peter Vogt and will serve as a member of the Company’s Global Finance leadership team.

Previously, the role had been held by Linda Ventresca, who will now focus on her role as chief transformation officer, overseeing the Company’s enterprise-wide transformation program. AXIS’ corporate development and communications teams will continue to report in to her.

“Matt brings a great mix of investor relations expertise, (re)insurance sector knowledge and sell-side equity research experience. This, combined with his strong relationships within the investment community, makes him uniquely suited to serve as our Head of Investor Relations,” said Vogt. “He will play an essential role in helping AXIS tell our story to the investment community, particularly as we further realize the benefits of our enterprise-wide transformation focused now on translating AXIS Capital’s strong specialty market positioning into market leadership.”

Rohrmann joins AXIS after having held investor relations roles at leading organizations within the (re)insurance industry. Most recently, he was director of investor relations at AIG, and previously he served as associate director, investor relations, at Willis Towers Watson.
