Bruce will be a great addition to the team as we continue to expand our capital advisory services at BMS. His broad market relationships with corporate, venture and private equity investors, as well as his experience in leading a number of new InsurTech capital advisory engagements, will play a key part in executing our growth strategy. We are therefore very pleased to welcome Bruce to the team.”

BMS Capital Advisory and BMS’ insurance and reinsurance brokers together offer their clients a joined-up approach to accessing the most appropriate sources of reinsurance capital for their needs, be that capital markets transactions with ILS funds or investors, or traditional reinsurance covers.
