Markel merges global, wholesale units under Sanders

Markel is combining its wholesale excess and surplus lines unit
with its global insurance segment under the leadership of Bryan
Sanders ahead of the retirement of Britt Glisson next year.
Glisson will hang up a 40-year career, most recently as
president of Markel's global unit, which includes complex,
risk-managed accounts, according to the company.
Sanders, who has led the wholesale E&S unit, will oversee
the combined group, rebranded as Markel Assurance, the
Virginia-based company said. It
