Consultants Hymans Robertson have hired Mahad Farooqui in its risk transfer team.
“We look forward strengthening our team with the benefit of Mahad’s experience and hearing his fresh perspectives of the risk transfer market. His understanding of the buy-in market will ensure that the members of the schemes we work with will be granted the best possible outcomes during the whole buy-out process and beyond,” said James Mullins, Partner and Head of Risk Transfer Solutions at Hymans Robertson.
“Mahad’s appointment is part of our continual expansion of the risk transfer team’s expertise. His experience furthers adds to the growing knowledge of the team and comes after Catherine Thain and Christian Ah-See joined the firm in August.”
“It’s an especially exciting time in the risk-transfer market, with a record number of deals due to transact this calendar year, and I look forward to solidifying the foundations of the risk transfer team at Hymans Robertson,” added Farooqui.
“I’m excited to get stuck in and get to know the team. Having met many of the team already, I look forward to being part of an innovative, friendly and hard-working group of people.”
Farooqui spent time previously at Aon and previously Mercer, where he specialised in risk transfer.
