Zurich appoints Philip Chiu as Head of Global Corporate

Zurich Insurance (Hong Kong) ("Zurich") is pleased to announce a key appointment—Philip Chiu as the Head of Global Corporate Division, following his post as Head of Financial Lines in Asia. In his role, he will directly report to Keith Thomas, CEO Global Corporate APAC, with a matrix reporting line into Eric Hui, CEO, Hong Kong.

Philip has more than twenty years of experience in the industry, and since his association with Zurich in 2014, Philip's role has excelled beyond underwriting, successfully targeting the new International Program business to Hong Kong. This led to his swift promotion as the Head of Financial Lines Asia where he grew the corporate insurance business. Seeing great opportunities and potential in the Hong Kong market, under his new scope, Philip looks forward to expanding upon Zurich's existing product offerings and propositions, with core emphasis to provide customer-focused intelligent protection with innovative product solutions.

"Fostering closer relationships with customers by providing products with deeper density will continue to be the basis of our success," shares Philip.

A veteran in the industry, Philip has a prolific insurance career, in which he has also been instrumental in the professional growth of his team members. We wish Philip all the best in his new role and are confident he will take Zurich to new heights for the remainder of 2016 and beyond.
