ACE Group today announced the appointment of Fabien Vaillant as
its new Middle Market Financial Lines Leader and EASY ACE Manager
for Continental Europe, as it continues to expand its insurance
capabilities for the middle market segment across the region.
In his role as Middle Market Financial Lines Leader, Fabien will
be responsible for the profitable growth of ACE’s middle market
portfolio in Continental Europe, with an emphasis on product
development, underwriting efficiency and further improving customer
experience as well as managing product distribution. Initially, he
will focus on the development of new private D&O and commercial
professional indemnity propositions.
EASYACE is ACE’s insurance offering that provides speedy and
efficient service to brokers and their small and medium-sized
commercial clients in France and Spain. In his new role as EASYACE
manager Fabien will be responsible for rolling out the EASYACE
proposition in other core European markets and further developing
ACE’s e-commerce capabilities.
Fabien’s appointment follows the recent launch of ACE Middle
Market Solutions, an enhanced proposition for brokers and clients
in Continental Europe. The proposition will provide middle market
companies with access to ACE’s multinational capabilities and
dedicated relationship managers. It will also give brokers and
their middle market clients access to educational and technical
support on emerging risks.
Fabien has more than 12 years of insurance industry experience.
He joined ACE as a middle market D&O underwriter in 2003. More
recently he held the position of Financial Lines Manager for ACE in
France where he developed a broad middle market portfolio with a
focus on private D&O and commercial PI.
Fabien will continue to be based in Paris and his appointment is
effective immediately. He will report to Grant Cairns, Financial
Lines manager for ACE in Continental Europe and Steve Reiss, Chief
Operating Officer for ACE in Continental Europe.
Grant Cairns, Financial Lines manager for ACE in Continental
Europe, said:
“Fabien’s appointment indicates the strong emphasis ACE places
in providing the right insurance cover for middle market and small
companies - the backbone of European economy. Research, including
ACE’s own, shows that financial lines cover is becoming
increasingly important for companies of this size. Fabien’s great
experience will help us respond to this real market need with
relevant, comprehensive insurance solutions for our brokers and
clients.”
Steve Reiss, Chief Operating Officer for ACE in Continental
Europe, said:
"SMEs play a crucial role in economic activity and job creation
across Europe. However, their size means that they can be more
vulnerable to external threats and risks. With EASYACE, we provide
smaller businesses with the insurance cover they need in order to
effectively face those challenges and grow, while providing an
easy-to-use platform to improve the brokers’ experience.”
