wefox founder and CEO, Teicke, commented: “I am delighted to announce Peter’s appointment. He is the second global insurance industry superstar to join us, following our new COO, Dr David Stachon, earlier this year. Peter brings over 20 years of insurance and global business experience to the business. His knowledge together with his proven commercial acumen and leadership skills are second to none.
“We clearly stated our intentions back in June when we announced our record-breaking Series C investment round of $650m – we will invest in technology and growth globally and wefox will be the number one personal insurer within a decade. With Peter’s appointment, I truly expect to see those intentions accomplished.”
