Asta, the leading third party managing agent at Lloyd’s, today announced it has appointed its chief actuary, Richard Barke, to serve on its Lloyd’s Managing Agency board, subject to regulatory approval.

Barke joined Asta in 2011. He was made deputy chief actuary 2 years later before being promoted to chief actuary in 2015. He began his career in 2003 as an actuarial graduate at KPMG before moving to Aspen Re as a reserving actuary in 2007.

Since joining Asta, he has been responsible for managing all actuarial activities across the business including devising and implementing Solvency II compliant capital models for 15 individual Asta-managed syndicates and SPAs.

Julian Tighe, chief executive, Asta said: “Richard is an extremely talented and experienced actuary and a valuable member of the Asta team.
