AXA XL Names UK & Lloyd's Underwriting Management Head

Stephanie Coxall, who came onboard AXA XL predecessor firm Catlin in 2012, will take on the position of UK & Lloyd’s underwriting management head on January 16.
“As we progress on our journey to deliver sustainable underwriting results and move forward with our growth plans, it’s critical that we continue to implement consistent underwriting standards, practices, and procedures as well as robust governance controls,” said Luis Prato, AXA XL’s chief underwriting officer for the UK and Lloyd’s.
“Stephanie has extensive industry experience and has spent 10 years working for AXA XL and its previous iterations. Her knowledge and understanding of the business will be a great asset to the UK & Lloyd’s business unit as we work to deliver our goals. I’m delighted to welcome Stephanie to her new role.”
Prior to her promotion, the NFU Mutual alumnus held a global learning & development role in charge of leading the AXA XL academies for underwriting, claims, and reinsurance. Coxall’s new post will see her support Prato.
AXA XL – consisting of AXA XL Insurance, AXA XL Reinsurance, and AXA XL Risk Consulting – is the property & casualty and specialty risk division of AXA Group.
