Other executive leadership roles he held at the insurer included chief actuary – and prior to this he was the chief financial officer of LV, the general insurance company Allianz acquired in 2018.
Van der Straaten said it was ”genuinely a pleasure to welcome Kevin Wenzel to Antares”.
“Kevin has amassed deep expertise during his distinguished career, with a strong finance and actuarial background and having successfully implemented several data science solutions,” he added.
“His pragmatic commercial and solutions-orientated approach to driving business performance will be extremely valuable to Antares.
