Mr Van Gysegem will report to Ralph Brand, President, Insurance, Continental Europe and Turkey, and will be based in Brussels. He will frequently travel to the Netherlands.
This marks the latest stage of Sompo’s development plans in Belgium and the Netherlands after it was last year granted licences by the regulatory authorities to write primary insurance locally in the two countries.
Mr Brand said: “Bart joins Sompo with an impressive career and reputation. He is highly respected and well known across the market in Belgium and the Netherlands. Bart’s connections, insights and extensive experience both from a carrier and broker perspective make him perfectly placed to fully establish, lead and grow our business across these two important countries.”
Mr Van Gysegem, who has more than 30 years of insurance industry experience, joins Sompo from Aon where most recently he was Managing Director of its Belux Major Accounts Segment since 2018, joining the broker two years earlier. Prior to that he spent 20 years working in a series of increasingly senior management roles at two large international carriers.
As part of Sompo’s broader Continental European growth strategy, Mr Van Gysegem is now driving the build-out of a strong local infrastructure and team. Supporting this next phase, Sompo today announced the opening of offices in Brussels and Rotterdam, located at the following addresses:
These locations strengthen Sompo’s ability to deliver global expertise through empowered local teams, ensuring clients and broker benefit from tailored solutions and a partnership model built for long-term value.
