Efinity strengthens leadership team as Peter Houston joins as Senior Advisor

Efinity has announced the appointment of Peter Houston as Senior Advisor, adding further insurance expertise as the company continues its mission to unlock specialty insurance distribution.

Peter brings more than 25 years’ insurance leadership and transformation experience, having held senior operational and transformation roles at both Aon and Chubb. Throughout his career, he has helped carriers, MGAs and brokers navigate change, improve performance and deliver measurable business outcomes across international markets.

Unlocking specialty insurance distribution

The specialty insurance market continues to evolve rapidly.

Carriers, MGAs and brokers face increasing pressure to launch products faster, engage partners more effectively and deliver greater operational efficiency. Yet many organisations continue to operate across fragmented distribution networks, disconnected systems and manual processes that slow growth and limit agility.

Efinity was built to address those challenges.

Forged inside a digital MGA, the platform enables carriers, MGAs, brokers and partners to:
  • configure and launch specialty insurance products quickly
  • transact efficiently across multiple distribution layers
  • engage partners effectively to drive growth
By helping organisations modernise distribution and partner engagement, Efinity provides the control, transparency and speed needed to compete in a changing market.

Deep industry expertise

Peter joins Efinity following a distinguished career spanning senior leadership, operational excellence and transformation roles across the insurance market.

His experience includes organisational transformation, operational redesign, customer service improvement and large-scale change management programmes delivered across international insurance businesses.

Working closely with Rob Stavrou and Efinity's client leadership team, Peter will provide strategic insight and market perspective as Efinity continues helping clients modernise distribution and drive growth.

Strengthening the next phase of growth

Ian Summers, Group CEO of Efinity, said:

"Unlocking specialty insurance distribution requires more than technology. It requires a deep understanding of how insurers operate and how change is successfully delivered at scale.

Peter is a respected voice in our market. His experience at Aon, Chubb and across the wider insurance industry will bring valuable perspective to our leadership team and strengthen our ability to help clients unlock greater value from distribution transformation."

Peter Houston said:

"Having spent more than two decades helping insurance organisations navigate change and improve performance, I've seen first hand how operational complexity can slow innovation and limit growth.

What excites me about Efinity is that it addresses a fundamental challenge facing the market: helping insurers unlock specialty insurance distribution while improving the effectiveness of the businesses that sit behind it.

I'm looking forward to working with Ian, Rob, Maciej and the wider team as Efinity continues helping carriers, MGAs and brokers to modernise distribution, strengthen partner engagement and accelerate growth."

With a strengthened leadership team and growing market momentum, Efinity continues to expand its ability to help insurance businesses launch products faster, transact more efficiently and engage partners to drive growth across the specialty market.
