Today, Consilium is excited to announce the opening of our new office in Singapore, which marks the expansion of our Cedant Facultative Risk Solutions division into the Asia Pacific market. This significant development is a major step forward in our international growth.
With our office officially open for business, we are bringing Consilium’s independent, specialist facultative expertise directly to cedants and brokers across the region, meeting clients where they operate - in their time zone, within their regulatory environment and with direct access to the global markets that power complex reinsurance placements.
A Strategic Gateway to Asia Pacific
Singapore sits at the centre of one of the most dynamic insurance environments in the world. Often viewed as the regional equivalent of the London market, the city has become a vital hub for reinsurance capital and specialist underwriting expertise. Establishing a presence here allows us to operate at the heart of that ecosystem.
From Singapore, we can serve cedants and brokers across Asia Pacific while seamlessly connecting them with both regional and London market capacity - delivering the speed and expertise required for complex facultative placements.
Why Singapore, Why Now?
Asia Pacific continues to be one of the most dynamic and complex risk environments globally. From major infrastructure projects to energy developments, the need for fast, specialist facultative reinsurance has never been greater.
Our Singapore office will initially focus on Property, Power, Energy and Construction Facultative Reinsurance, strengthening our ability to provide rapid, specialist facultative solutions across the region. The new operation enables us to support:
Cedant facultative placements for complex risks
Wholesale reinsurance transactions across international markets
Regional broker partnerships, providing access to global capacity
Asia Pacific MGAs seeking specialist reinsurance support
By operating locally while maintaining strong connectivity to international markets, Consilium provides clients with the best of both worlds - regional insight and global capacity by delivering agile, facultative solutions that reflect the commercial realities of the Asia Pacific market.
Leadership That Knows the Region
The Singapore office will be led by Rob Drysdale, whose career spans almost two decades in Asia Pacific facultative reinsurance. Joining Rob as Associate Partner is Ben Compton, who brings extensive regional expertise to the team along with a large network across the markets Consilium will serve.
Together, Rob and Ben will deliver the independent, specialist-led approach that defines our facultative offering, developing relationships with cedants, brokers and MGAs across the region.
Supporting A Diverse and Growing Region
From our new base in Singapore, Consilium will support clients across a wide and diverse territory, including North Asia, South East Asia, Oceania and The Middle East.
Each of these markets brings its own regulatory challenges and risk dynamics. Our approach is designed to handle that complexity, providing tailored facultative advice and access to capacity that aligns with the needs of each market.
A New Chapter for Consilium
The opening of our Singapore office is a significant milestone for Consilium, highlighting our long-term commitment to the Asia Pacific region. By combining local presence with global market access, we are enhancing our capability to provide independent facultative solutions where they are needed most.
