Acrisure Re, the re/insurance division of global fintech leader Acrisure, today announces an addition to its leadership team with the appointment of Roman Romeo as President, Head of Acrisure Re Bermuda, effective April 7. He is based in Bermuda and reports directly to Michael Cross, President, Acrisure Re North America.

Romeo will lead Acrisure Re’s Bermuda team with a clear mandate: to scale the business, enhance client service capabilities, and build a high-performing team of forward-thinking professionals. His leadership is expected to significantly accelerate Acrisure Re’s ambitions on the Island and reinforce its position as a top-tier global reinsurance broker.

With more than 20 years of experience across underwriting, analytics, and portfolio management, Romeo brings a wealth of insight and a strong track record of driving innovation and performance. He joins Acrisure Re from Aon, where he served as CEO of Aon Reinsurance Solutions, Bermuda. His prior roles include senior leadership positions at AXIS Capital, PartnerRe, Flagstone Reinsurance Holdings, and XL Group (now AXA XL), giving him deep and well-rounded exposure to all aspects of the reinsurance value chain.

In further strengthening its Bermuda presence, Acrisure Re also announces the appointment of Barry Gordon as Senior Vice President, ILW, effective April 15. Gordon is based in Bermuda and reports to Romeo and is responsible for trading ILWs as part of an indexed based product suite. He joins from Aon, where he most recently served as Vice President, ILW. Gordon brings deep expertise in Industry Loss Warranties (ILWs), alongside broader experience in retrocession and reinsurance.

Simon Hedley, CEO, Acrisure Re Group, commented:

“The hiring of Roman represents a major milestone in Acrisure Re’s commitment to expanding its footprint and deepening its influence in the Bermuda market. His industry expertise, leadership acumen, and deep-rooted relationships on the Island will open countless doors and drive enormous value for our clients and partners. With Barry also joining the team, we are building a world-class platform that will firmly cement Acrisure Re’s standing in the market.”

Paul Scope, CEO, Acrisure Bermuda, added:

“Bermuda remains an important market, and Acrisure’s decision to further invest here is both strategic and important. Roman’s appointment, alongside Barry’s, is a powerful signal of our intent to grow thoughtfully and meaningfully. I look forward to working alongside them and seeing the impact they will make in the months and years ahead.”

Roman Romeo commented:

“Bermuda continues to play a critical role in the global reinsurance landscape, and I’m pleased to be joining Acrisure Re at a time of strategic focus on the Island. The existing team has strong expertise, and I look forward to collaborating with them—and with Barry—to strategically grow the portfolio and provide clients with tailored, analytics-driven solutions.”
