UK insurance broker Jardine Lloyd Thompson (JLT) has recruited former Britannia Club chief executive John Trew to lead a fresh push into the protection and indemnity insurance sector, starting with a marketing campaign in Japan.
Mark Cracknell, senior partner of JLT’s marine and cargo division, said Trew’s appointment followed a business review that showed that the company was light on P&I brokerage business compared with its hull and machinery book.
