Liberty Specialty Markets appoints head of aviation claims

Liberty Specialty Markets (LSM) has appointed Peng Lim to the newly created role of head of aviation claims.

Chief among Lim’s responsibilities will be leading Liberty Specialty Markets’s claims proposition for aviation and supporting the growth of the insurer’s aviation book. 

Gillett commented: “As an extremely high-profile figure within our industry, [Lim] brings unrivalled knowledge of the sector—knowledge that will benefit our clients not only at the point of claim but throughout their relationship with LSM.”

“Her appointment once again shows our commitment to hire exceptional talent to support the ambition of LSM and our clients.”
