Aon’s global reinsurance intermediary and capital advisor Aon Benfield has appointed Andy Marcell as president. Effectively immediately, Marcell will report to Aon Benfield chief executive Eric Andersen.   
 
Marcell was CEO of reinsurance broker Guy Carpenter’s operations in the US and also served as head of its global facultative business before joining Aon Benfield in August 2015.

He was recently head of strategy at Aon Benfield and will now play a wider role in managing the global business while based in New York.

Over the past two years, Marcell has focused on growing the business across the firm’s existing client base and has also worked on a range of strategies to attract new clients.
 
“Andy has an admirable track record of industry experience and knowledge, and has an impressive skill set to become president of Aon Benfield. He will provide strong leadership to our teams and he brings an international perspective to the role as we continue to grow our global business,” said Andersen.
