while Paul has a wealth of experience in the Group’s insurance and investment businesses and an
exceptional understanding of the markets in which we operate.


“With these appointments, the Board is well placed to address the further development of Group strategy.


“I would like to pay tribute to Philip Broadley for all that he has achieved since he joined us in November

resilient business able to focus on meeting our customers’ financial goals.”
