June 11 - (The Insurer) - MNK Group has appointed Wajahat Khawaja as head of governance and controls, the company said on Wednesday, as part of the group's ongoing consolidation
Khawaja most recently served as a reinsurance consultant at Fidelity Insurance Brokers. Previous roles include global head of underwriting governance at Swiss Re Corporate Solutions, and underwriting governance and control frameworks manager at Axa XL.
In his new role, Khawaja will be responsible for enhancing, embedding and implementing group-level policies, including underwriting guidelines, a peer review and an independent review framework.
MNK said the roll out of these policies will support its cultural shift as it continues to expand its geographical footprint.
The group was rebranded to MNK Group in April year in a move to ensure greater integration between its broking, MGA, and risk-taking entities.
Under the new brand, Lloyd's broker MNK Re has been renamed to MNK International.
