“Since joining AXIS a decade ago, Conrad has played a critical role in developing standards of operations for our global compliance and legal practices and, in doing so, has earned the respect and confidence of our Board of Directors and of our management team,” said Mr. Benchimol. “He brings to the General Counsel position an extensive understanding of our business, as well as deep expertise in the fields of corporate law, insurance regulation, compliance, underwriting support and litigation as it applies to global insurance and reinsurance. We are very proud to appoint him as a senior leader within our organization.”

On behalf of our entire team at AXIS, we thank Rick for his leadership and counsel and wish him the absolute best on his retirement.”
