Singapore, 28 October 2024: Tokio Marine Kiln (TMK) today announces the appointment of Alexandros Ampatzis as Head of Marine in APAC. He takes up his new role on 1 November 2024 and will report into Jamie Tang, Regional Underwriting Director for Asia Pacific.

Ampatzis is a marine insurance specialist who brings extensive experience in the global marine insurance industry, particularly in APAC, to the role. He joins from Starr Insurance, where he held the role of Marine Manager for South-East Asia. Prior to this, Ampatzis held a number of roles at AXA, most recently Deputy Head of Marine Cargo Underwriting in Singapore.

Based in Singapore, TMK’s APAC marine team has a wide geographical focus, stretching from Australia to the Middle East. In his new role, Ampatzis will primarily be focused on deepening TMK’s presence in target markets across the region and continuing the team’s rapid growth.

This appointment is the latest in a series of new hires for TMK in Singapore. It follows the appointment of Stephanie Hong as Marine Underwriter, APAC, last month and shows TMK’s commitment to growth in the region.

Pavlos Spyropoulos, Regional Managing Director for Asia Pacific, said:

“Alexandros’ appointment marks a key milestone for TMK’s marine team in APAC. With the size of the marine team’s portfolio doubling last year, Alex arrives at an exciting time for the business. With over 20 years of experience in the industry, he brings unparalleled knowledge to a team well placed to seize the significant growth opportunities in the APAC market.”

Alexandros Ampatzis, Head of Marine, APAC, said:

“TMK’s market-leading offering, combined with its reputation for strong growth and innovation, makes it an exciting time to be joining the business. There are impressive ambitions to grow the proposition even further and I’m looking forward to bringing my expertise and working closely with Pavlos and the team to ensure we do just that.”
