TAL appoints chief risk officer


Life insurer TAL has appointed a chief risk officer to its senior executive team to bolster its risk management sector.
Risk manager Scott Mackenzie joins TAL after a long career in financial services in the United States, Latin America and Canada.
It comes as chief corporate governance officer Peter Noble retires after working in the role for seven years.
Mackenzie was previously CEO and founder of a risk consulting practice in Atlanta in the US before joining TAL.
Prior to that he worked for almost 20 years in senior executive roles for ING, including as chief risk officer for ING Latin America.
In addition to the appointment, TAL has also set up a board risk committee along with a framework to share risk management expertise and best practice across the broader Dai-ichi Life Group of companies.
