Price Forbes Re, an independent specialist risk strategy and reinsurance broker, has named Sanjay Shah as Vice President (VP), Business Development Actuary.
Shah will play a central role in expanding Price Forbes Re’s LPA business, continuing the team development initiated with Sanday’s appointment earlier this year.
A qualified actuary, he will focus on designing the firm’s LPA reinsurance strategy, advising on strategic direction and optimal reinsurance structures, and supporting both deal execution and post-transaction management.
Bringing over 15 years of post-qualification experience, Shah has held commercial roles across leading reinsurance firms. Most recently, he was pricing manager at Resolution Life and has previously worked at SCOR, Swiss Re, and Prudential, gaining expertise in pricing, transaction execution, deal oversight, and post-deal reporting.
Outside of his industry roles, Shah sits on the boards of two technology companies as a non-executive director and has acted as an independent advisor to several start-ups over the past six years.
Sanday said: “At Price Forbes Re we aim to demonstrate the incredible value that structured reinsurance solutions can provide to our clients, and we therefore focus on recruiting high calibre and credible team members like Sanjay. His extensive experience and understanding of the market are key as we build a high-performing team, and his appointment underlines our commitment to investing in this space and delivering the best experience and results for our clients.”
Shah commented: “Joining Isaac on this mission to grow LPA at Price Forbes Re was a very appealing prospect, given its entrepreneurial and forward-thinking environment. The business has a great track record of success and the opportunity to be part of that and work with and learn from people like Isaac made the decision to join a simple one.”
Tim Barber, CEO Price Forbes Re London, added: “Sanjay’s arrival is a continuation of the Price Forbes Re blueprint: imbedding dedicated actuarial product expertise with bespoke advisory, delivering structured reinsurance solutions to achieve optimal client value. We continue to invest in upscaling the model, broadening our offering to best serve current and prospective clients, where this suite of specialist expertise is most impactful.”
