As the insurance broking world is undergoing change, Aon Risk Consulting, a division of Chicago-based Aon, is focusing on bringing risk management advisory services to the boardroom of the UK's large corporates and taking on new blood to drive the business.

The appointments come "as the challenge of risk climbs the boardroom agenda" and "the answers required to meet the challenge are becoming ever more complex", he adds.
Mr. Barnett joins from Deloitte Consulting, where he was a partner in financial services, and he was previously a partner at PwC. His new deputy also comes from PwC, where he was a partner in the financial risk management practice.
