Clapham joins Aon Underwriting Managers as CUO

Global professional services firm Aon has revealed that Simon Clapham has joined the firm as chief underwriting officer for Aon Underwriting Managers (AUM).

Clapham reportedly holds extensive experience in the insurance industry, having previously worked in underwriting and broking companies in the UK and US.

This includes around 12 years at Liberty Specialty Markets, where he served as head of underwriting performance management across long-tail, short-tail, and reinsurance classes of business. Clapham has also been the active underwriter for Brit’s Syndicates 800 and 2987, a member of the board at Brit Insurance Holdings plc, and of the Lloyd’s Market Board.

James de Labillière, managing director of AUM, and to whom Clapham will report, commented, “Simon brings a wealth of underwriting, technical, and market knowledge to AUM at a period when portfolio underwriting is growing significantly.

“We are excited for him to be joining our leadership team and look forward to working with him as we develop products and solutions for Aon clients, broking colleagues, and our carrier markets.”

Clapham himself added, “This is a great opportunity to work with a well-established and hugely talented MGA business at a point when the demand for these solutions is growing extensively across the distribution chain.”
