Markel Int’l. Appoints Tidey Assistant Marine Underwriter in Singapore

Specialist insurer Markel International has appointed Luke Tidey as an assistant marine underwriter in its Singapore office.

He joins the team in Singapore from Markel’s Stockholm office where he held the same position. Prior to that, he was a marine underwriter with Vero Marine and he brings with him five years of marine underwriting experience.

Tidey reports to Matthew Cannock, who heads Markel’s Asia Pacific operations as well as the group’s marine team in Singapore, and will be supporting Cannock’s “focus on building Markel’s marine hull and cargo business in Asia further.”

Cannock welcomed Tidey, indicating that he “will be a valuable addition to the team here in Asia and we can definitely look towards building an even stronger marine book here in the region.”
