Until the end of September, Walsh worked at insurer AIG, where he was most recently vice-chairman of AIG Property & Casualty and chairman of  AIG Europe and AIG Asia Pacific Insurance.

Walsh’s career at AIG spanned more than 42 years. He held several senior roles at the insurer, including chief executive of American International Underwriters.
