Turner was formerly based in the UK, from where he managed the insurer’s EU operations.
Moreover, the insurer also looks to appoint more executives in Turner’s team shortly.
“RSA Luxembourg demonstrates our commitment to the European Union. Our investment in this office showcases our commitment to continuity for our customers and other business partners across the EU post Brexit,” Turner stated.
