Adrian Saunders has been named by Marsh as the firm’s new Private Client Services chief for the UK.

Saunders leaves behind the post of managing directors of strategic partnerships at Zurich Insurance to join the firm.

Prior to his stint at Zurich he worked with Hiscox as regional manager for the North of England.

In his new role Saunders will report to Mike Melling, chief executive of consumer practice for the EMEA (Europe, Middle East and Africa) region.

Saunders explains that rising wealth has been accompanied by an increase in hectic lifestyles.

This means that high net worth individuals require a high level of expertise and advice to ensure that their insurance provides adequate cover for their personal needs.

Melling has welcomed Saunders to the team, and has praised his strong track record of fostering good relationships with high net worth individuals.
