The London Market Group (LMG) has reappointed Nicolas Aubert, head of Great Britain for Willis Towers Watson, as chair of the trade organisation.
 
Aubert will continue to lead the LMG for another year. He thanked the members of the trade body’s board for their support and commitment.
 
Reflecting on the past year, Aubert said that the “curve ball” of 2016 was Brexit, which had given the industry both opportunities and challenges.

“We will shortly be releasing the latest data on the position of the London Market, and I am sure this will spark more debate on the way forward,” Aubert said.
 
“We have a window of opportunity to make some substantial strides to increase our competitiveness, and I am delighted that I will be able to continue working with all sectors of the market to grow and enhance London’s position and reputation.”
 
Aubert said the LMG is working “very closely” with the government to both protect businesses and make “positive changes that will allow our unique marketplace to grow and thrive.”
 
“The last 12 months has seen real progress across all of our workstreams,” Aubert said.

Among last year’s highlights was the launch of PPL, the London market’s electronic placing platform, which was a “crucial step forward” for LMG’s modernisation work, according to Aubert.
