Miller Launches M&A and Strategic Solutions Team With 3 Senior Hires

Miller, the London-based independent specialist re/insurance broker, announced the appointment of three senior hires into its newly established M&A and Strategic Solutions (MASS) team.

The new team will be led globally by Andrew Johnson and Edwina Charlton, alongside Rupert Newman who joins as the team’s head of Broking. As well as transactional risk insurance, the team is building out separate specialist tax and contingent risk practices in order to become one of the pre-eminent full-service teams outside North America. Johnson will also be working with the wider business on its growth initiatives.

Johnson, Charlton and Newman bring significant expertise from legal, banking, restructuring and broking backgrounds. Johnson and Charlton both began their careers as M&A lawyers in London and Asia, with a combined experience of 20 years before making the move across into insurance with Marsh.

Based in London, the team will sit within Miller’s Professional & Financial Risks business and will advise its client base of private equity, hedge and sovereign wealth funds, corporates, law firms and corporate financiers on domestic and cross-border risks across all industry sectors.

“The launch of MASS is a response to the general pace and volume of deal activity and the expansion of tax and contingent risk insurance in the global market,” commented Laura McDonough, head of Professional and Financial Risks at Miller.

“Already bolstered by our colleagues in the Asia Pacific region, and with a couple of additional recent team hires in London, we believe MASS will superbly complement the reputation of Miller’s growing professional and financial risks proposition,” McDonough added.
