Rachael Ingle, CEO of Aon Ireland, said: “I’m delighted to take up the role of CEO of Aon Ireland and EMEA Head of Wealth Solutions at a key moment for our firm and our clients. In a world that is more volatile and fast moving than ever before, the risks facing leaders are becoming more complex and the need for better decisions has never been greater.

“That’s why I’m excited to work with our teams to help business leaders in Ireland address their current and emerging needs. With growing impact of geopolitical risk on businesses as well as the need to address other forms of risk such as climate change and rising costs, Aon is committed to helping organisations to not only protect their business but help it to grow and thrive.

“I’m confident that our team of over 700 experts here in Ireland have the skills and expertise to deliver the most cutting-edge commercial risk, health, human capital and wealth solutions for our clients.
