With the addition of Mr. Jhawar and Mr. Vaseghi, Global Atlantic continues its track record of attracting key industry talent.
“As our institutional business grows in the US and expands internationally, our ability to attract key talent is critical,” said Manu Sareen, Co-President and Head of Institutional Markets at Global Atlantic. “The leadership, experience and different perspectives that Neir and Ali bring to the team will further strengthen our capabilities and help us continue to serve our growing client base as a leading reinsurance franchise.”
Mr. Jhawar will ensure appropriate focus and resources are in place across the company to support its growing institutional business. A seasoned leader, he joins Global Atlantic from Credit Suisse, where he served in various leadership positions, including Managing Director, Global Head of Prime Services Risk, US Head of Prime Brokerage and Global Primes Services Chief Operating Officer. Prior to Credit Suisse, Mr. Jhawar spent more than eight years at Accenture.
Mr. Vaseghi will be responsible for the development of Global Atlantic’s institutional strategy in Asia, working in collaboration with Darryl Herrick and Jason Kao, Co-Heads of Reinsurance, on potential opportunities in the market.
