June 25 - (The Insurer) - The ceded reinsurance teams at Axa Group and Axa XL will be combined to form a unified ceded re team, effective July 1, 2025, the company said on Wednesday.
The team will be led by Guy Van Hecke, who will retain his roles as group head of ceded re and head of ceded re for Axa XL.
He will report to Axa Group chief underwriting officer Nancy Bewlay and maintain a matrix reporting line to Axa XL CEO Scott Gunter for Axa XL-related duties.
The move is designed to streamline operations, reduce duplication and enhance market presence, with a focus on consistent strategy, synergy, communication and governance, the company said.
