BMS, the independent specialist re/insurance broker with an operation in Bermuda, has appointed Richard Wynn as managing director of specialty classes for their London DUA and programmes division.

Mr Wynn, together with Phil Gander and Peter Nyonyintono, joins BMS from Marsh to expand BMS’ capabilities in specialty lines.

Mr Gander was appointed as divisional director and Mr Nyonyintono as a broker in specialty risks.

Having been in the industry for more than 30 years, Mr Wynn’s global specialty expertise will complement BMS’s existing growth strategy, the company said.

Previously he worked for more than three years as managing director of Marsh specialty following its merger in 2019 with JLT specialty, where he was a partner. Prior to this he spent 18 years working for Howden.

Mr Wynn said: “We are very pleased to join BMS, bringing additional international specialty capabilities to the well-established BMS delegated authority team.

“The main attractions being the operational excellence and expertise BMS already have in place to fully service our clients efficiently, whilst also having the freedom to work with our insurance, reinsurance, and analytics capabilities to deliver the best solutions for the MGA sector.”
