XL Catlin, a Bermuda-based re/insurer, has appointed Steven Zimmerman to its broker and client management team as its client distribution leader. He will be based in Los Angeles.
Zimmerman will report to XL Catlin’s US West regional broker and client management leader, Mike Soper and has over 20 years of both business development and broker experience in the insurance industry.

“We see abundant opportunities to help Southern California’s growing business community address their insurance needs more effectively and conveniently,” said Bob Peretti, XL Catlin’s head of broker and client management, Americas.
“In fact, this is why we established our first LA-based Broker & Client Management position and Steve is well qualified to establish this new position and build our rapport with area brokers. In his new role with XL Catlin, Steve will help area brokers and businesses tap into the appropriate expertise and products across our 30-plus business insurance lines.”
