Sompo aims to boost general aviation

Bermuda-based specialty P&C re/insurer Sompo International Holdings has hired Peter Buckley to boost its general aviation offering. He joins as vice president for aerospace.

Buckley has over 20 years’ experience in the industry as an underwriter in the UK and Singapore, most recently as aviation underwriter for Cincinnati Global Underwriting in London. Before that, he was at Catlin, and he started his career at Beaufort Underwriting Agency.

Buckley trained as a commercial pilot and holds a bachelor of engineering in avionics from the University of London.

Andrew Metcalfe, SVP for London Market Aerospace, said: “As a long-standing market leader in aerospace insurance, we are pleased to be able to expand our offer to the growing general aviation sector, leveraging the Sompo International network and quality capacity to grow our business globally. Peter will be responsible for developing our general aviation book outside the US as well as in the London wholesale market.

“Enhancing our offering in this space requires building stronger, closer and more productive relationships with our clients and brokers worldwide, and Peter brings extensive experience to a diverse team that draws on a range of knowledge, technical expertise and insights to deliver better outcomes for brokers and insureds.”
