MSIG Asia taps new VPs to lead transformation and underwriting efforts

One will focus on operational efficiency whilst the other on non-marine business.

MSIG Asia has appointed two new senior vice presidents, Rajnish Pal and Christian Kolmberger, to its leadership team.

Pal joins as senior vice president and head of Transformation, where he will focus on improving operational efficiency and driving regional transformation initiatives. 

With over two decades of experience in financial services and consulting across Japan, Hong Kong, ASEAN, the UK, and the USA, Pal has led numerous digital and performance improvement projects. 

His expertise in business model design and scaling ventures will support MSIG's growth objectives in Asia.

Kolmberger has been appointed as senior vice president of Underwriting, Reinsurance, and Claims. 

He will focus on non-marine business, particularly in energy and construction, whilst advancing MSIG’s strategy on renewable energy. 

Kolmberger, who has over 30 years of experience, will help MSIG tap into Asia-Pacific's growing renewable energy sector, which is expected to see $3.3t in power generation investment over the next decade.
