RSA beefs up telematics team

RSA said it has promoted Paul Middle to the role of global telematics partnering director.

Middle will be responsible for growing RSA’s telematics portfolio globally across both personal and commercial lines in UK & Ireland, Canada and Scandinavia.

Based in the UK, he will report to Kenny Leitch, RSA’s global telematics director.

A 20-year RSA veteran, Middle has been part of the RSA Telematics team since it was created in 2012. He was previously head of telematics partnering.

“In recent years, our telematics portfolio has gone from strength to strength. In the UK alone, premiums have grown by 100% since the beginning of 2014, and in Norway we were the first insurer to launch a telematics app for drivers,” Leitch said.
