Chubb has appointed Adeline Loh (pictured) as chief distribution officer in Malaysia. She will lead the continued growth of its agency and broking distribution channels in the emerging Southeast Asian market.

In her new role with Chubb, Loh will also spearhead the formulation and implementation of strategic initiatives to further develop Chubb’s distribution proposition and business in Malaysia.

Loh joins Chubb with almost two decades of insurance industry experience across the Asia-Pacific region. Prior to returning to Malaysia, she was based in Hong Kong, leading the North Asia agency business for an international insurer. She was head of agency for a major Malaysian insurer, where she worked for more than 16 years in a variety of roles, prior to leaving in 2016 for her North Asia stint.

“I’m delighted to welcome Adeline to our team for this important and challenging appointment,” said Steve Crouch, Chubb’s country president for Malaysia. “With her blend of experience, business acumen and passion, I have every confidence that Chubb’s agency and broking channels will thrive under her leadership.”
