“With 15 years of relevant insurance industry experience, management
responsibility spanning both commercial and personal lines, and

this key role for ACE.
“Iberia is one of ACE’s most important markets in Continental Europe and
Véronique is ideally placed to drive forward our plans for targeted
growth and continued investment in the property and casualty business
and in the accident and health sector, where Spain is a centre of
expertise for our region and represents our largest direct marketing
business in Continental Europe.
“Finally, I want to thank Serge Osouf for stepping up to provide the
leadership as interim Country President for Iberia over recent months
that has ensured strong continuity for the business, and for driving
