SCOR has promoted Adrian Kerins to head of life and health for Australia and New Zealand (ANZ), effective immediately, the reinsurer announced on Tuesday.
Having joined SCOR in April 2025 as head of strategy and growth for ANZ, Kerins has served as interim head of ANZ since August. Before SCOR, he spent over a year at Munich Re, most recently serving as head of client solutions. He has also worked at Downsizer.com, AIA Australia, and CommInsure.
Kerins brings over 20 years of experience spanning the insurance and reinsurance industries, having held a range of senior leadership, strategy and technical roles throughout his career. In this role, Kerins will lead SCOR’s life and health business across Australia and New Zealand, the reinsurer said on LinkedIn.
Chloe Wang, head of SCOR life and health for APAC, said, “Adrian combines deep technical expertise with strong commercial acumen and a client-centric approach.” She added that his leadership, experience and understanding of the ANZ market make him well positioned to lead the business.
The appointment follows a series of leadership changes across SCOR’s business lines in recent months.
Earlier in August, SCOR Business Solutions, the corporate risk insurance arm of the reinsurer, made a series of appointments and internal moves across its energy business globally and in Asia-Pacific.
Pierre-Louis Migairou was appointed global line head of energy, while Steven Sim became regional line manager for energy in APAC. Meanwhile, Michel Krenzer has taken on the role of energy transition lead, and Nicolas Dorgnach will relocate to Singapore to support SCOR’s energy underwriting capabilities in the region.
