Howden Re to launch Taiwan Office led by Jimmy Tsai

We are pleased to announce the launch of Howden Re Taiwan, a milestone in Howden Re’s expansion in Asia. Howden Re’s Taiwan office will be led by Jimmy Tsai, who joins Howden Re as Managing Director in June this year. With over 15 years of experience in the Taiwanese and Asian reinsurance market, Jimmy brings extensive industry expertise to local and regional clients.

Howden Re Taiwan will focus on Treaty Reinsurance and provide Taiwanese clients with on-the-ground access to local expertise. The new office is backed by extensive resources from across the wider Howden group as well as dedicated regional reinsurance and analytics capabilities, including Emily Lo, who was appointed Head of Analytics, Howden Re Asia, last month.

Andy Souter, Managing Director and Head of Asia-Pacific, commented: “Expanding in Asia-Pacific is a strategic priority for Howden Re’s international development, as we continue to build a market-leading reinsurance platform and team. I am delighted to welcome Jimmy to the business and look forward him joining in June. The strength and depth of the team we have and the calibre of the talent we continue to attract is testament to Howden’s differentiated and innovative approach to working together to serve our clients”
