D K Email and Phone Number
Over the last 25 years I have been able to develop very strong skills in the fields property & casualty underwriting of large corporate client as well as reinsurance. Several missions in New York, London and in particular Paris as well as the continued high quality learning opportunities at SwissRe allowed me to develop strong expertise in management, sales & negotiations, underwriting, structuring, product development and claims to the benefit of insurance portfolios, successfully combing growth and profitability.
