Kindlustus
The Supervisory Board of AS LHV Kindlustus, a subsidiary of AS
LHV Group, intends to elect Martti-Sten Merilai as a new Member of
the Management Board of LHV Kindlustus, who will also be appointed
the Chairman of the Management Board. According to the plans, a
decision on the change of the company’s Management Board will be
taken on 24 November 2022 or a later date close to that date. The
date of adoption of the decision will depend on the statutory
obligation to notify the Estonian Financial Supervision and
Resolution Authority of the proposed election of the head of the
insurer.
Martti-Sten Merilai has been involved with the Seesam insurance
company since 2012, having been the Sales Manager of Key Accounts
of Seesam Insurance AS between 2012 and 2018. From 2018 to 2019,
Merilai was the Head of Key Accounts Department, responsible for
managing the team, managing and organising all processes, preparing
and executing budgets. Since the Seesam brand became part of the
international insurance group Vienna Insurance Group, Martti-Sten
Merilai has been the Head of the Partner and Broker Relations
Department and a member of the management team of the insurance
service provider Compensa Vienna Insurance Group, ADB Estonia
branch, where his tasks included managing three sales units (key
accounts, partners, and e-sales), managing and organising all
processes (risk management, sales, administration, participation in
the development of IT solutions) and preparing, defending, and
being responsible for the execution of budgets. Martti-Sten Merilai
is not a member of the management body of any other company and is
not a shareholder of LHV Group; a person related to him owns 1,000
ordinary shares in LHV Group.
Madis Toomsalu, the Head of LHV Group and Chairman of the
Supervisory Board of LHV Kindlustus, commented on the proposed
change as follows: ‘LHV Kindlustus is off to a good start and
business volumes are growing rapidly across all insurance products.
A strong team and a growing business also need a forward-looking
leader. Martti-Sten Merilai’s background in insurance is in line
with the objectives of LHV Kindlustus to strengthen its position in
the Estonian insurance market. The goal for the new Chairman of the
Management Board is the profitable growth of the business,’
Toomsalu said.
LHV Group is the largest domestic financial group and capital
provider in Estonia. LHV Group’s key subsidiaries are LHV Pank, LHV
Varahaldus, and LHV Kindlustus. The Group employs more than 840
people. As at September, LHV’s banking services are being used by
