AXA XL has appointed Tim Whisler to lead its Wholesale Business in the Americas. Reporting to Lucy Pilko, CEO Americas, he will oversee the company's Programs and Excess & Surplus (E&S) segments and lead the Wholesale Underwriting unit.

Tim Whisler brings a wealth of experience in the wholesale insurance market, having spent two decades at Lexington Insurance Company, most recently as Head of their subsidiary, Western World Insurance Company.

This growth has significantly outpaced that of the broader market over the past few years. Tim’s appointment underscores our dedication to investing in this market, fostering broader distribution partnerships, and driving innovation in underwriting, products, and technology to achieve ‘best in class status.”

Whisler added: “The Excess & Surplus (E&S) market is a dynamic and a crucial segment of the industry. I am excited to collaborate with the team to realize our full potential. Our strategy will be focused on an unwavering commitment to the wholesale channel. I am thrilled to join AXA XL and lead the Wholesale Solutions team in the Americas.”
