The reinsurer Scor announced Sunday the appointment of Fabrice Brégier as chairman of its board of directors, replacing Denis Kessler, who died two weeks earlier.
The decision was taken unanimously by board members, the group said in a statement.
A graduate of the École Polytechnique, Mr. Brgier began his career in 1986 with the Ministry of Industrial Redeployment and Foreign Trade before joining the Matra company, Eurocopter, then the general management of Airbus. He is also president of Palantir France, a services and software publishing company, since October 2018.
I have a thought moved for Denis Kessler, who has worked so hard to make SCOR a world leader in reinsurance, declared the new president, quoted in the press release of the company.
Fabrice Brgier will take over from Denis Kessler, emblematic president of the reinsurer since 2002 and figure of French employers, who died on June 10 at the age of 71.
