In his new role, Deehan will help expand access to Aon’s integrated advisory, analytics and technology-led solutions, enabling clients to make better risk and capital decisions and pursue profitable growth. A key focus will be expanding adoption of Aon’s Life Risk Modeling Suite in APAC, including PathWise, the firm’s platform for life and annuity risk modeling that helps actuarial teams run complex projections more efficiently. Based in Hong Kong, Deehan will report to Sherif Zakhary, global CEO of Aon’s Strategy and Technology Group and Inpoint.
“Asia Pacific represents a significant growth opportunity for our team, and Sean will play a key role in expanding our capabilities, strengthening collaborations and delivering even greater value for clients across the region,” said Zakhary. “Sean’s regional experience, market knowledge and commercial leadership will help increase our momentum and support continued growth in Asia Pacific.”
Deehan brings more than 25 years of experience across insurance, consulting, strategy and risk management, with extensive expertise in Greater China and across Asia Pacific. He has led businesses and growth initiatives across some of the region’s most dynamic insurance markets, with experience spanning strategy, actuarial leadership, M&A, market entry strategy, product innovation, risk management and client advisory.
Deehan said: “Aon’s strategy and technology group has a strong reputation for helping clients make better decisions through innovation and deep industry knowledge. I am excited to join the firm at a time of significant opportunity across Asia Pacific and look forward to working with colleagues and clients across the region to deliver distinctive solutions that support growth and long-term success.”
