AXA XL hires US underwriter for structured risk solutions


AXA XL, the property and casualty and specialty risk division of AXA, has named Austin Su as US underwriting lead of its structured risk solutions (SRS) business, part of the global alternative risk transfer group.

Su is based in New York to focus on developing structured re/insurance for AXA XL’s captives and large corporate clients. He brings more than 20 years of extensive international insurance experience, and was most recently at AIG, where he held various positions within the alternative risk business, country commercial lines leadership and multinational and captive programs.

Robert Turner, global head of SRS, said AXA’s clients are always looking for new, innovative risk management solutions to address their changing business exposures. “[Su’s] decades of experience will be invaluable to our corporate and captive clients seeking to develop custom-made risk transfer solutions to help them achieve their strategic objectives,” he added.
