Melissa C. Email & Phone Number

I am a self-starter with a track record of building profitable and niche insurance business, particularly in the field of credit and political risk insurances. In recent years, I have also been actively underwriting financial lines business. As an underwriter,I work collaboratively and respectfully with brokers and clients to develop non marine specialist insurance business in Asia in a profitable and sustainable way. I am energised by the prospect of building a business and solving business problems. I am curious about how the various industries work and enjoy doing research on a risk before forming an underwriting opinion. Besides being a risk entrepreneur in the insurance space, I have an interest in making Economics come alive for young learners. I am also fascinated by the field of Behavioral Economics and the works of Amos Tversky, Daniel Kahneman and Richard Thaler. They challenge me to review and reflect on my underwriting decision making process. I also believe in sharing resources and minimizing waste. Doing bread runs for Food from the Heart is one of the ways that I walk the talk.
