Lloyd’s List: Ilias Tsakiris among the Top 10 in Marine Insurance 2020

December 11, 2020/in Frontpage Article, Images, Interview, Media Presence, News, News Feed, Publication /by Marketing

American Hellenic Hull CEO Ilias Tsakiris has been named among the Top 10 in Marine Insurance 2020 by Lloyd’s List, the internationally reputed information provider for shipping since 1734.

Mr. Tsakiris was included for the first time in the publication’s annual Top 10 in Marine Insurance 2020, published as part of its eagerly-awaited ‘One Hundred People 2020 Edition’, a list of the most influential people in shipping.

According to Lloyd’s List, The Top 10 in marine insurance list is collated by Lloyd’s List editorial team and considers a mixture of traditional power-brokers in an insular niche, as well as those doing noteworthy things within it.”

His entry notes that Mr. Tsakiris is “at the head of a dynamic new entrant in the sector, and he is shaking things up.”

Since its inception in 2016, AHHIC has invested in innovation, becoming the fastest growing marine hull and machinery insurance company globally.

During 2020, AHHIC exceeded all projections and reached the milestone of 3,000 insured vessels in its hull portfolio.

Recent pioneering steps made by Mr. Tsakiris include a partnership with World Maritime University to launch a postgraduate diploma in marine insurance. A firm believer in sustainability, he has also led AHHIC to become the first marine insurer to sign up to the United Nations Environment Programme Finance Initiative Principles for Sustainable Insurance. The company has similarly become the first in its sector to sign the UNEPFI Sustainable Blue Economy Finance Principles. AHHIC was the only dedicated marine insurance company that participated in the development of UNEPFI’s first global guide to managing environmental, social, and governance (ESG) risks in non-life insurance sectors.

“This comes as welcome recognition of all the effort that has been invested in establishing American Hellenic Hull as a reputable force in the market in such a short space of time,” Mr. Tsakiris commented.

“Being listed among the Top 10 in Marine Insurance 2020 professionals internationally by Lloyd’s List, a historic information provider synonymous with the shipping and insurance industries, is a great encouragement for all of us in AHHIC. We look to build on our success to date and further invest in our strategy of being a leader in sustainable marine insurance,” he added.

Mr. Philippos Philis, President of the Cyprus Shipping Chamber, addressed the Signing Ceremony stating at the same time the important role of education and expertise to the young talent who lead the future of shipping.

Mr. Ilias Tsakiris, CEO of American Hellenic Hull Insurance Company, stated: “AHHIC is striving to promote Cyprus as a world center not only for shipping, but also for education and excellence. In cooperation with the American P&I Club, American Hellenic Hull, would like to extend that this cooperation with the World Maritime University will provide a curriculum to young executives that will be the next decision makers in our industry. We wish to facilitate their education as part of the Cypriot Maritime Cluster. Furthermore, we would like to invite WMU to increase its presence in Cyprus, bearing in mind Cyprus’ tradition as a maritime nation. The Minister and the Government are trying to enhance education within the maritime cluster and we wish that the WMU will endorse their efforts for a better global maritime community”.
