“As market conditions evolve, we are focused on broadening out parts of our existing portfolio where we see the potential for further growth. Cyber is one of those areas, and we believe there is a clear opportunity to build a larger and more meaningful position in the market and meet more of our brokers’ needs.”Martin Burke, MS Amlin’s Chief Underwriting Officer
London:MS Amlin has appointed two new senior cyber underwriters as it looks to expand its direct cyber portfolio and accelerate growth in the class.
Alex Jomaa will join the Lloyd’s insurer as Head of Cyber, while Monica Tigleanu has been appointed Lead Underwriter. Jomaa will report to Stuart Wood, MS Amlin’s Director of Casualty and Cyber.
MS Amlin began writing cyber treaty in 2024 and expanded into direct cyber insurance in 2025 through a small number of strategic coverholder relationships.
The expansion of its direct cyber portfolio forms part of MS Amlin’s strategy of building out existing lines of business, extending into adjacent areas where it can drive profitable growth.
Martin Burke, MS Amlin’s Chief Underwriting Officer, said: “These appointments mark the next stage in the development of our cyber portfolio.
“We already have an established presence in the cyber market, where we have grown our cyber treaty and delegated business in a controlled and disciplined way.
“Alex and Monica bring the underwriting expertise and market experience needed to scale the portfolio further, while maintaining the same careful and selective underwriting approach.
“As market conditions evolve, we are focused on broadening out parts of our existing portfolio where we see the potential for further growth. Cyber is one of those areas, and we believe there is a clear opportunity to build a larger and more meaningful position in the market and meet more of our brokers’ needs.”
Jomaa joins from Onda AI, a cyber insurance managing general agent, where he was chief underwriting officer and a founding executive. He previously held cyber underwriting roles at Tokio Marine Kiln and CFC Underwriting.
Tigleanu was most recently cyber strategy director at BMS Group. She previously held senior cyber underwriting and broking roles at Munich Re Syndicate, Marsh Specialty, Beazley and AIG.
