Consilium launches specialty treaty reinsurance division

Consilium, part of the Aventum Group, has announced the launch of a new Specialty Treaty Reinsurance division.  

The Treaty division will complement Consilium’s existing worldwide broking operations including its FAC division launched last month. It will leverage the Aventum group’s actuarial and technology capabilities within Mulberry to bring transparency to both clients and carriers. 

The Treaty division will offer both proportional and non-proportional solutions, for clients ranging from start-ups to mature insurers and MGAs and with a broad risk appetite to match clients’ diverse needs.

New senior hires

Paul Cousins (MBA) and Matt Webb have both been appointed a partner at Consilium to lead the new division. Cousins joins from Chesterfield Group where he was executive director Delegated Underwriting, handling the Group’s international reinsurance and prior to that was managing director Speciality at Capsicum Delegated Authorities. 

Matt Webb joins from Ed Broking where he was previously division director of Reinsurance.

David Bearman, founder and CEO of Consilium’s parent group Aventum, said: “Consilium now has the scale and experience to offer clients a holistic Specialty Reinsurance solution. 

”We have international reinsurance broking capabilities across the globe and we will be expanding those in both class and territory. The expertise we have on board, our commitment to truly understand the clients and their portfolio and to always ‘go the extra mile’, combined with our inhouse actuarial capabilities, will be a game changer in the Treaty market. 

”Mulberry brings something that’s completely new to the Treaty table – never before have insurers and MGAs had accessible access to such levels of actionable data and analysis, fast.”
