Pool Re CEO joins Cambridge Centre for Risk Studies in advisory role
Outgoing Pool Re CEO Julian Enoizi has been appointed executive-in-residence at the Cambridge Centre for Risk Studies (CCRS), to help its research address systemic risk and risk transfer solutions.
Enoizi will take up the advisory role at the beginning of February. He announced late last year that he will step down as CEO of the UK’s terrorism backstop Pool Re in the spring.
CCRS is part of the University of Cambridge Judge Business School and conducts research into risk and risk management.
It’s new executive-in-residence roles will bring in senior executives from companies across a variety of industries to bridge the gap between CCRS’s theory and practice.
“We are delighted that Julian has accepted this role. His perspective as CEO of a unique organisation such as Pool Re and his in-depth knowledge of how the global insurance industry is approaching systemic risk will mean that he can provide valuable insights and advice to guide our research,” said Dr Michelle Tuveson, executive director and chairman of the advisory board at CCRS.
Enoizi said CCRS carries out “sterling work” that provides frameworks for recognising, assessing and managing the impacts of systemic threats. This work has never been more vital, he continued.
“I am looking forward to engaging with them in considering how catastrophes and their impacts ripple across an increasingly connected world, and offering advice backed by 25 years in the commercial insurance world,” said Enoizi.
CCRS recently launched a new research consortium that aims to protect society from future systemic risks.
Funding will be provided by an international consortium of companies, including Pool Re.
The research will support the creation and extension of private-public market institutions, and develop new risk transfer products and advisory services.
