Clearwater Analytics Strengthens Leadership in Asia-Pacific with New Appointment
Clearwater Analytics Holdings, a leading provider of investment management and analytics solutions, announces the appointment of George Hindmarsh as the new Head of Sales and Business Development for the Asia-Pacific region. Hindmarsh brings with him an impressive 25 years of experience, primarily in servicing insurance clients, with a notable background at Citigroup in various global cities, including London and Singapore. His extensive expertise is particularly timely as Clearwater aims to solidify its growth in the burgeoning Asia-Pacific (re)insurance market, where regulatory demands and complex data management are increasingly critical.
This leadership appointment coincides with Clearwater’s recognition as the Technology Provider of the Year at the InsuranceAsia News Excellence Awards for the third consecutive year. This accolade underlines the company's significant contributions and innovative solutions tailored for the region's insurance sector. Shane Akeroyd, Clearwater's Chief Strategy Officer and President of Asia-Pacific, emphasizes the strategic importance of Hindmarsh’s role in enhancing client relationships and driving business development, particularly as the company expands its operations in Hong Kong. This expansion is designed to improve collaboration with major insurers, ensuring that they can navigate the complexities of data management and regulatory reporting effectively.
In addition to Hindmarsh's appointment, Clearwater has recently opened a new office in Hong Kong, complementing its established presence in Singapore. This move not only enhances the firm’s operational capabilities but also positions it to better serve its regional clients. Hindmarsh expresses enthusiasm about joining Clearwater at this juncture, recognizing the firm’s potential to innovate and transform investment data management for insurers grappling with stringent regulatory requirements. The company’s recent partnership with MSIG Singapore, a prominent general insurer, further illustrates its commitment to delivering robust solutions that facilitate compliance with international standards like IFRS 9, all while optimizing costs.
Clearwater Analytics continues to set a high standard in the Asia-Pacific market, poised for ongoing success and expansion through strategic leadership and innovative partnerships. As the insurance industry evolves, Clearwater's proactive approach and commitment to customer success position it favorably amidst the challenges and opportunities the region presents.
