Canopius, the global specialty re/insurer, announced it has strengthened its senior leadership team in Bermuda with the appointment of Jesse DeCouto as chief underwriting officer and Tonia Morgan as chief financial Officer of Canopius Reinsurance Ltd.

Morgan takes up her new role on July 1, succeeding Teresa Gallant, while DeCouto joins on Sept. 1, in a newly created role.

DeCouto joins the business as chief underwriting officer in Bermuda. Starting his career as a pricing actuary in 2000, he brings nearly 25 years of experience in the industry and was most recently global chief underwriting officer for Validus Reinsurance. DeCouto will also serve as Canopius’ global product leader for Reinsurance, overseeing the governance, performance and standards of reinsurance underwriting teams across the business.

Morgan brings over two decades of finance experience in the global reinsurance industry. She joins Canopius from AXA XL, where she was CFO of Bermuda Reinsurance.

Both DeCouto and Morgan will report to Charles Cooper, CEO, Canopius Reinsurance Ltd. and Global Head of Reinsurance.
