Global insurer American International Group (AIG) has announced the promotion of Neil Smallcombe as President, Lexington Insurance Company, the firm’s U.S. surplus lines insurer.
In his new role, Smallcombe will leverage his over two decades of industry experience to lead Lexington’s A&E, Casualty, Healthcare and Western World businesses.
He will also work closely with Lexington CEO, Lou Levinson, as AIG continues to build on Lexington’s position as an E&S market leader.
“With deep expertise in the wholesale market and a strong commitment to underwriting discipline, Neil exemplifies our deep bench of talent and leadership within AIG,” an AIG spokesperson stated.
Smallcombe initially joined Lexington’s London Casualty operation in 2003, holding positions of increasing responsibility.
His experience includes underwriting on both a Primary and Excess basis for all General Casualty lines, covering both large National accounts and the Middle market space.
In 2013, he relocated to Chicago to head AIG’s Lexington Casualty Surplus Lines platform across the Midwest.
