Volante Global has announced a major leadership change, appointing Martin Reith as the company’s new executive chairman, effective immediately. This appointment signals a new phase in the company’s growth strategy as it prepares for a pivotal year in 2025.
Reith, who brings over four decades of experience in the re/insurance industry, will take the reins in overseeing Volante Global’s underwriting strategy. His leadership will ensure that the company’s efforts align with its long-term objectives and solidify its position in a competitive market.
In his new role, Reith will serve as a strategic advisor to the board and the executive team, with a focus on identifying and capitalizing on sustainable growth opportunities. “I am thrilled to join Volante and support the executive team,” Reith stated. “The business has a unique model that will offer significant opportunities in 2025 and beyond.”
According to Volante Global’s founder and CEO, Talbir Bains, Reith’s deep industry expertise makes him an ideal fit to collaborate on key strategic initiatives. “As we embark on a year of significant growth for Syndicate 1699, Martin’s expertise will be instrumental in driving our continued success and helping us deliver strong underwriting profits in an increasingly competitive landscape,” Bains said.
The appointment of Reith is seen as a strategic move for the Lloyd’s Syndicate and Managing General Agent (MGA), which operates across multiple classes and territories. This leadership change reflects Volante Global’s commitment to strengthening its leadership team as it focuses on its growth plans for 2025 and beyond.
Volante Global aims to continue meeting the expectations of Lloyd’s and its capital partners while pursuing its strategic objectives through its international service company structure. The company integrates data-driven processes with a strategic platform to deliver high-quality underwriting services across various markets.
With Reith at the helm, Volante Global is positioning itself for a year of substantial growth and sustained success in the dynamic global insurance market.
