Kian Wong

Chief Risk Officer at British Gas Insurance

Kian recently joined British Gas as the Chief Risk Officer for their insurance and service operations. 

The opportunity to work within the financial services arm of one of the largest domestic energy supplier in the UK makes for an interesting change from his previous stints at insurers Aviva Europe and Liverpool Victoria, where he led the capital management and risk functions. 

Kian is a qualified actuary and for his sins, has led a range of Solvency II internal model and economic capital programmes. Kian started and developed his early career at Tillinghast (now Willis Towers Watson) and EY. 

Outside work Kian is a martial arts instructor and an experienced ice-climber, two activities that - in Kian’s opinion - brings risk appetite and stress-testing conversations to life a lot quicker!
