GENEVA, 11 August 2009 – Aon Private Risk Management (APRM), the leading insurance broker and risk adviser for the ultra high net worth sector, has opened an office in Geneva.

APRM is responsible for assessing the risks facing wealthy individuals and families’ tangible assets, liabilities and well being, in order to provide insurance protection and risk management advice. The team works directly with the client or through their advisers, ranging from trust companies to lawyers.

Romain Vanolli, head romandie at APRM, will head up the team of four specialists. The launch expands Aon’s ultra high net worth network of 220 people with offices in Europe (London, Frankfurt, Amsterdam and Madrid), the US (Florida, New York, Chicago and Los Angeles) and Hong Kong.

Romain commented: “As Geneva becomes an increasingly attractive domicile for the wealthy, we’ve positioned ourselves to offer advice locally on the risks facing families at home and worldwide. The world has become a riskier place and the wealthy are recognising that they need to take a proactive approach to protecting their assets.”
