       LONDON, Jan 8 (Reuters) - Insurance market Lloyd's of
London  SOLYD.UL  said on Wednesday that Chief Executive John
Neal would leave in 2025 and join insurance broker Aon  AON.N .
    Neal will become global chief executive of Aon's reinsurance
business and global chairman of climate solutions, Lloyd's said
in a statement. 
    Neal has been chief executive of Lloyd's for more than six
years, and was previously group chief executive of insurer QBE
 QBE.AX .
    His departure follows that of chairman Bruce Carnegie-Brown,
who announced his resignation last year. Carnegie-Brown will be
replaced by Charles Roxburgh in May 2025.
    "During 2025, John will continue to support both the planned
succession of a new Chair of the Council of Lloyd’s and the
executive leadership transition,” Carnegie-Brown said in a
statement.
    In a separate statement, Aon said Neal would report to Andy
Marcell, chief executive of risk capital, and serve as a member
of the firm's risk capital leadership team.
