He also has extensive technical and managerial expertise in product proposition and pricing, actuarial health portfolio and financial management, health business value chains, network, and customer relations.
“We are glad to confirm Dr. Soo’s appointment and his ability to lead our growth plans in the Philippines. The Asia region is an important engine of profitable growth for our Group and we remain committed to investing in our people to drive this,” Generali International CEO Jaime Anchustegui Melgarejo said.
Recently, Generali Group also outlined its half-year results for the first six months of 2023.
