28th January 2015 JLT Specialty today announces the relaunch of its Global Communications, Technology & Media (CTM) practice, with Sam Tiltman (pictured) appointed as Head of Practice.

Sam has been at JLT Specialty for 6 years, spending the last 3 and a half years working in the Global CTM Practice in various positions, most recently as Deputy Head. In this time Sam has focussed heavily on CTM industry R&D, advanced consulting projects for clients and project-managed numerous major CTM practice projects ranging from multi-line multi-year insurance programme deals and structured risk finance solutions through to advanced product development and risk landscape consulting.

The appointment reflects JLT Specialty's continued commitment to the CTM sector as one of its key specialisms, with the practice providing global support on industry strategy across the JLT International Network and with key global insurers.

The team will continue to provide industry specific R&D, events, benchmarking information and product development for its global client base, in addition to JLT's core insurance broking and risk management offerings. These will be focused on key sector issues such as industry convergence, increasing risk complexity and integration, the further transformation from tangible to intangible risks as well as the continued distortion of geographic and "legal" boundaries.

Commenting on the relaunch of the practice, Sam Tiltman said 'I am delighted to lead JLT's Global CTM team working within this highly dynamic and exciting industry sector. Our mission is to build upon the leading client-focused approach we have developed over the past 10 years, collaborating across the JLT International Network to deliver superior industry-driven advice and innovative solutions for our clients'.
