Utmost, a London-headquartered global provider of insurance-based wealth solutions with assets under administration of £123.4 billion ( 163.5 billion ), has appointed Natalie Yeo as head of high-net-worth underwriting, effective October 6. She is based in Singapore.
Yeo brings over 25 years of insurance and reinsurance leadership experience across Asia, having held senior leadership and underwriting roles with global firms including AIA, Reinsurance Group of America, Transamerica, Swiss Re China Branch Beijing and Munich Re.
Her deep high-net-worth underwriting expertise, cross-border experience and collaborative approach to working with partners have helped establish her reputation for supporting business growth across the region, the firm says in a statement.
The appointment strengthens Utmost’s specialist underwriting capability for high-net-worth clients and supports the continued expansion of its Variable Universal Life ( VUL ) proposition across Asia, it adds.
