HAMILTON, Bermuda, July 01, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — SiriusPoint Ltd. (“SiriusPoint” or the “Company”) (NYSE: SPNT), a global specialty underwriter, has today announced the appointment of Mark Aspinall as Head of its new Fine Art & Specie team, effective January 2027.
Mr. Aspinall will be based in London and will report to Global Head of Marine, Chris Fenn. He will be responsible for establishing SiriusPoint’s new Fine Art & Specie offering and building a disciplined portfolio across high-value asset risks. This includes fine art institutions, galleries, private collections, luxury retailers, auction houses, and secure transportation providers.
Mr. Aspinall has more than 35 years of experience in the Lloyd’s and London insurance markets, specializing in complex international fine art, specie, and high-value risks. He joins SiriusPoint from Liberty Specialty Markets, where he was most recently Senior Underwriter – Fine Art & Specie. Prior to this, he held senior underwriting roles at Travelers Syndicate 5000.
“Adding Mark to the team reflects our continued focus on building out targeted specialty capabilities where we see clear opportunities for well-priced business and profitable growth,” said David Govrin, Group President and CEO of Global Reinsurance & London Market Specialty at SiriusPoint. “Mark’s deep technical expertise and strong broker relationships will be critical as we establish a scalable Fine Art & Specie offering within our specialty platform, which complements adjacent Marine classes like cargo and war, political violence and terrorism.”
Mr. Aspinall’s appointment follows the recent hiring of Ed Winter and Paul Beattie, who lead the Company’s new Crisis Solutions offering, and Ella Stevenson, Crisis Solutions Underwriter. The team will focus initially on war, political violence and terrorism risks.
