Fidelis MGU – the managing general underwriter that was launched in January 2023 as an entity separate from Fidelis Insurance Group – has appointed Simon Crone (pictured) as group director of underwriting.

Crone came on board Fidelis Insurance in 2019 as senior underwriter and currently serves as Fidelis MGU’s chief underwriting officer for the European Economic Area. In addition to taking on the director post, the promoted leader will be retaining his existing CUO position.

Prior to the leadership appointment, which Fidelis MGU announced on LinkedIn, Crone was also head of partnership underwriting.

Outside Fidelis MGU, Crone’s previous roles include chief underwriting officer for mortgage and credit at AmTrust International.
