REG-Lancashire Hld Ltd: Appointment of CEO of LICL and CUO at LUK

LANCASHIRE HOLDINGS LIMITED

7 November 2019

Hamilton, Bermuda

Appointment of CEO of Lancashire Insurance Company Limited and CUO at
Lancashire Insurance Company (UK) Limited

Lancashire Holdings Limited (“Lancashire”) has today announced two new
appointments within the Lancashire Group. 

Hayley Johnston will become the new Chief Executive Officer of Lancashire
Insurance Company Limited (“LICL”) with effect from a date to be finalised
in the spring of 2020.  Hayley will succeed Elaine Whelan, who announced her
retirement plans earlier this year. LICL is the principal Bermuda regulated
insurance and reinsurance carrier for the Lancashire Group. James Flude will
assume the role of Chief Underwriting Officer at Lancashire Insurance Company
(UK) Limited (“LUK”), the Group’s UK regulated insurer, a role
previously held by Hayley Johnston. Both appointments are subject to all
relevant regulatory and governance approvals.

Hayley has many years’ experience in the London and international insurance
and reinsurance markets and joined Lancashire in 2007 as a marine and aviation
underwriter and outwards reinsurance manager. Hayley subsequently progressed
through the Group and was appointed LUK Chief Underwriting Officer in 2014.
Elaine will step down from her role as CEO of LICL at the end of February
2020.

James Flude joined Lancashire in 2014 as head of marine and energy
underwriting and assumed additionally the role of LUK Deputy Chief
Underwriting Officer in 2017.

Alex Maloney, Lancashire Group CEO, said:

“I am delighted to see Hayley and James succeed to these senior roles within
our Group. Both are longstanding colleagues and valued members of our
management team, and each one will bring fresh perspectives and strategic
vision to their new roles. I would also like to thank Elaine, as our Bermuda
CEO, for her dedication and contribution to our success over many years.

As we announced earlier in the year, Elaine will also step down from her Group
Chief Financial Officer role in early 2020 and we expect to be able to report
on our succession plans for that role before the end of this year.”
