Katarzyna Slabon-Adams (Kasia) joins Trawick International as head of financial control and governance in the UK. She brings over 20 years’ experience in accounting and finance, a decade of which has been spent specializing in insurance.

Slabon-Adams holds status as an FCCA Fellow with the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants (ACCA).

The Trawick International UK Accident & Health division will bring Life, Disability, Health, and Travel insurance offerings and the best-in-class service Trawick is known for, to an even greater market and audience. Growth and diversification have always been a key strategy for the company, and I am thrilled with the opportunity this presents.”
Trawick International first expanded to the UK in 2022 with the hiring of Alan Crellin, Managing Director of Global Accident, Health & Life Reinsurance. Soon after, the company purchased a stake in UK-based Health Pulse Services and, most recently, controlling stake in Greenlight Insurance. The addition of Hargreaves, Fletcher, and Slabon-Adams to the UK-based team further strengthens the company’s global presence and foothold in the Accident & Health insurance space.
