I am Chief Strategy Officer at Inigo, where I manage our dynamic Strategy, Third-Party Capital, Outwards Reinsurance and MI teams, alongside a multitude of other topics on any given day. I am a qualified actuary as well as an experienced reinsurance underwriter, having spent a decade at PartnerRe and Everest Re prior to joining Inigo. My other career choice was as a professional bridge player, and I dream of regaining some of my prior form. I am a mother to two young girls, who bring me much joy and keep me on my toes!

I am one of the underwriters in the reinsurance team. In addition to my underwriting role, I run our Insight team. I’m interested in how we can use data science, earth science and technology to improve our products. When I can, I like to get outside on skis, paddleboards or bicycles.

As an Underwriter on our Reinsurance team, I focus on International Property and Specialty lines. Before joining Inigo, I worked on the Broking side and use this experience to help us better understand our clients’ and brokers’ needs, and ensure we provide a high-quality service. Outside work, I love travelling and immersing myself in different cultures. I spent three years living in Sapporo, Japan where I learnt a great deal, including learning to speak Japanese.

As an assistant underwriter on our reinsurance team, I focus on international property lines. Prior to working at Inigo, I studied International Relations at the University of St Andrews. Away from work, in the winter months you’ll find me skiing and in the summer months on the cricket field.

I am an Assistant Underwriter in the Reinsurance Team and I focus on International Property Treaty. My main responsibilities include analysing accounts and providing support to ensure we provide a high-quality service to our clients and brokers. My previous roles were in Catastrophe Modelling, and I use this experience to help assess the underlying risks. Outside of work I enjoy trying new recipes and dancing, sometimes I combine the two and dance in the kitchen.

The Inigo Claims Experience

Visit any insurance company, and you’ll see promises about claims expertise and efficiency. To be frank, that should go without saying.

To us, a high-quality claims experience means so much more.

It’s about appreciating everyone is different and understanding your unique challenges. It’s about building a partnership on the foundations of a refreshingly human approach. One that trusts us to lead the way, take decisive action and be a calming influence – when and while you need us.

And it’s about proactively working to benefit everyone through insightful data analysis and creating innovative, bold solutions based on the lessons learned.

And yes. These core principles are underpinned by our responsive, nimble and expert claims team – empowered to make the right decisions at the right time to provide the best possible outcome.

Because some things really shouldn’t remain unsaid.

As Head of Inigo’s claims department, I am responsible for all classes of business. I bring 30+ years of insurance claims experience to Inigo and was formerly AIG’s Chief Claims Officer, International responsible for management of all Commercial & Personal Lines claims across the International & Speciality Divisions.

Perry Bowen

HEAD OF FIRST PARTY & REINSURANCE CLAIMS

London, United Kingdom

e: [email protected]

I joined Inigo in November 2023 bringing more than 20 year’s experience in the Lloyds claims market. I have in recent years held senior claims roles at Ki/Brit, Pioneer and Arch with a strong focus on all 1st party classes. I am proud to work with underwriters who see the claims value proposition in order to retain and grow their wider business. I am also keen to promote the claims function of a syndicate as a great career choice to younger entrants to the London insurance market. In my spare time I like to watch most sports (Tottenham Hotspur when they win) and get on my Peloton for a workout at every opportunity.
