Dialogue appoints Alex Dabell as Chief Technology Officer

London 20th October, 2021: Independent complex risks platform Dialogue Exchange Global Limited (Dialogue) announces today that Alex Dabell has joined the business as Chief Technology Officer.

Alex was previously with independent global specialty insurance broker Price Forbes & Partners Limited, where he worked alongside brokers to build out their client-facing technology offering. Prior to this, he was with Nous Global Markets and before that, he founded Betwire. Alex began his career at RWE Supply & Trading GmbH.

Dialogue Founder and CEO Ben Heaney said:

“We are delighted to welcome someone of Alex’s calibre and experience to our business at a time when we are expanding globally and onboarding brokers and underwriters onto our platform.

The credit and political risk insurance market epitomises complex risk transfer, and processes in the market remain non-standard and inefficient in many areas. Dialogue is simplifying those processes, improving industry standards and connecting brokers and insurers with an easy-to-use platform, to ultimately attract more business to the insurance market.

We are also beginning to enable brokers to use our API connectivity so that Broker portals can connect directly to Dialogue, giving easier interoperability between Brokers and Insurers specialising in the complex risks space. After months of onboarding, 50 insurers have already been added onto our platform which is an encouraging sign that our approach is popular with the market and gaining momentum.

Alex brings a wealth of relevant experience and I know that we will benefit enormously from his extensive insights and market expertise.”

Alex Dabell, Chief Technology Officer, commented:

“Technology for complex risk insurance is a real challenge – but also an extraordinary opportunity – and the work that Dialogue has already done to successfully build a digital platform to negotiate and bind complex risks in the Credit and Political Risk Insurance (CPRI) market is a significant achievement and truly ground-breaking.

I have been hugely impressed with the technology and processes the team has already implemented as well as their vision for the future and we have big plans to maximise the multitude of digitisation opportunities that the complex risks market presents. I am delighted to have joined such an innovative and forward-thinking team and I look forward to playing an integral role in the future success of the business.”
