Global Retirement and Protection SVP Joins Lumos
Lumos Insurance, a wholly owned subsidiary of Hoplon Capital, a financial services holding company, announced that Tom Kenny has joined as managing director and senior vice president of Global Retirement and Protection. He brings more than 20 years of financial services experience in the United Kingdom, the United States, and Australia, with a focus on retirement income, long-term care solutions, and actuarial product development.
Kenny will establish Lumos’ reinsurance operations to support the growth of the company’s senior-market and retirement business in the United Kingdom, the United States and globally.
He joins Lumos from Just Group plc, a retirement-focused insurer from the UK, where he served as Group Property & Credit Risk director. In that role, he led an initiative to implement Solvency UK reforms, a new investment-limit framework, and a credit-rating validation framework. His 14-year tenure at Just Group also included roles spanning pricing, product development, medical underwriting, mortgage underwriting, and property management across medically underwritten and enhanced annuities, as well as equity release mortgages.
Earlier in his career, Kenny established the pension risk transfer pricing team at Partnership Assurance. He has also held roles at MetLife, Munich Re, Asteron Life, and Willis Towers Watson.
