Amwins International Underwriting, the London-based division of global specialty distributor Amwins, has appointed Keith Trivitt as the underwriting director for its Amplify portfolio solution. Launched in June 2023, Amplify is a cross-class product suite available exclusively through brokers associated with Amwins Global Risks. The solution functions as an automated follow-form facility, led by Beazley’s Smart Tracker Syndicate 5623.
Simon Jackson, Managing Director of Amwins International Underwriting, expressed his enthusiasm for Trivitt’s appointment, highlighting it as a testament to Amwins’ commitment to attracting top underwriting talent to its London team. Trivitt, who brings extensive experience in portfolio solutions from both carrier and distributor perspectives, previously served at AXIS Capital, overseeing portfolio solutions.
Trivitt commented on his new role, expressing excitement about exploring new ways to deliver capacity across multiple lines of business and enhancing distribution capabilities. His appointment represents another strategic step in expanding Amwins’ underwriting team in London, following the hiring of Simon Jackson in November 2023 and the acquisition of a box at Lloyd’s earlier this year.
In the US, Amwins has also seen recent developments, including the merger of MGAs Amwins Transportation Underwriters and National Truck Underwriting Managers to form Amwins National Transportation Underwriters, a move aimed at enhancing market access and customer service.
