Nick Gillett, CEO of BMS International, said: “We are delighted to welcome Tony as a pivotal part of our team. His leadership skills, deep market knowledge and technical ability will undoubtedly strengthen our presence in this important, growing region for BMS Re. With the successful establishment and ongoing growth of our businesses across Latin America and the Caribbean, where Tony has developed strong relationships over many years. I look forward to partnering closely with him as we drive the next phase of BMS Re's expansion in the region, with a focus on continued investment in our global reinsurance platform. In collaboration with the Group, we will continue to provide exceptional service to our clients.”
Mirabal added: “I’m thrilled to be joining a dynamic brokerage firm that is thriving and looking to grow in this part of the world. BMS Re has tremendous growth potential in this region, and I am confident that its innovative and exceptional approach to client service will drive continued success.”
Mirabal will report to Gillett and will continue to be based in Miami. He will work closely with Juan Carlos Gomez, who will become President of Latin America and Caribbean; and will continue to play a pivotal role in helping shape the regional strategy and supporting local offices.
