Brace Underwriting Limited (“Brace”), the Beat Capital-backed, multi-line and alternative risk specialist underwriter, today announces the appointment of Michael Davis as Senior Underwriter. He is based in London and reports to Tom Sambrook, Head of Underwriting.

Davis, in collaboration with Sambrook, will be heavily involved in developing Brace’s underwriting strategy as well as managing client engagement and portfolio optimisation across all parts of the company’s portfolio. He will also use his extensive experience in the Canadian property and casualty market to expand this portion of Brace’s portfolio.

Davis brings more than 13 years of industry experience to Brace, having previously worked as a property underwriter at Tokio Marine Kiln (“TMK”). He joined TMK as a graduate trainee in 2010, later being promoted to property claim adjuster in 2012 and moving to the underwriting side of the business in 2015.

Adam Holberry, Group CEO of Brace, said: “Brace is heavily invested in attracting market leading talent to elevate its underwriting strategy and Mike will be an excellent addition to the team. His experience in claims and underwriting, especially in the Canadian P&C market, will be invaluable as we look to build out our portfolio further and I look forward to working with him.”

Davis said: “Brace’s innovative approach to underwriting and ability to meet the rising market demand for tailored insurance products made joining this brilliant team a simple choice. I look forward to working with Adam and Tom, tapping into my previous knowledge to continue developing their underwriting approach.”
