According to the broker, based in London, Mr Myers will guide reinsurers through the ratings process and advise them on the financial, operational and strategic issues that influence a company's financial strength rating.
He is also head of Aon Benfield's enterprise risk management practice globally and was previously based at the firm's New York office. As head of ERM, Mr Myers will continue to direct efforts assisting reinsurers with ERM framework support and related analytics.
