Acrisure Re, the reinsurance and insurance division of global fintech Acrisure, has appointed Peter Sharpe as the Head of the London-based Specialty Reinsurance team, effective October 7th.

Sharpe has a reporting line to David Sowrey, Managing Director of Acrisure Re’s International Treaty business.

Sharpe brings over two decades of industry experience, joining from Gallagher Re, where he served as an Executive Director. Before this, he held the same role at Willis Towers Watson for more than nine years.

Sharpe started his career in the ceded Re team at Hiscox before moving on to assistant underwriter roles in the property treaty divisions at XL Re and then at Trans Re.

Sowrey commented, “We are so pleased to welcome Peter to Acrisure Re. His extensive experience and impressive track record in the reinsurance sector make him a valuable addition to our team.

“Peter’s knowledge and insights will undoubtedly contribute to our goal of delivering innovative and bespoke solutions to our clients as we expand our international presence.”

Sharpe added, “I’m excited to join Acrisure Re at such a dynamic time. The team’s experience, market knowledge, and client-centric approach made this an ideal opportunity for me. I look forward to working with David and the broader team to develop further and grow the international property and specialty portfolio.”
