LONDON, June 9, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Markel Insurance, the insurance operations within Markel Group Inc. (NYSE:MKL), today announced that it has appointed Sucheng Chang as its new Managing Director for Asia Pacific, with effect from 14 July. In his new role, Chang will head up Markel International's Asia Pacific business, which operates from its regional hub in Singapore and from offices in Australia, Hong Kong, China, India, Malaysia and Dubai. He will be responsible for leading the strategic direction of the business, centered on maximizing profitable growth and delivering exceptional client and broker service. Markel International's Asia Pacific business has witnessed significant expansion in recent years, following investment made as part of its Accelerate Asia Pacific strategy. Since 2019, GWP has increased by approximately 600%, underwriting profitability has improved and the number of employees in the region has increased by nearly 300%. Chang will take over from Christian Stobbs, who earlier this year announced his decision to leave the Asia Pacific region, remaining with Markel in another role. Commenting on Chang's appointment, Andrew McMellin, President of Markel International, said: "Sucheng is a highly strategic and well-respected leader within the Asia Pacific market, and I'm thrilled that he's joining Markel to lead our regional business in the next phase of its development. The Accelerate Asia Pacific strategy is a cornerstone of the profitable growth agenda at Markel International. I've no doubt that Sucheng's leadership qualities and his significant experience of scaling insurance operations in Asia will help us to build on this momentum as we push it forward to even greater success." Chang added: "Markel has made huge inroads in Asia Pacific and today is a well-respected insurance partner to clients and trading partners in the region, renowned for its focus on exceptional service and customer outcomes. I therefore couldn't be more excited to lead the next phase of the expansion of Markel's Asia Pacific business, building on the progress that's been made to expand our presence even further and take advantage of the opportunities available in the US$300-billion GWP Asia-Pacific insurance market." Chang arrives at Markel with significant experience scaling insurance operations across the Asia Pacific, most recently as Chief Executive Officer, Hong Kong, for Aon. Prior to joining Aon, Chang spent more than 13 years at Liberty Mutual in strategic roles, including Chief Distribution Officer, Global Retail Markets East and Chief Executive Officer of Liberty Insurance Singapore.

'AI-First' Hype Gives Way to Reality: New Speechmatics Report Reveals What's Actually Working in AI
CAMBRIDGE, UK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--After a wave of bold 'AI-first' announcements from major tech players, many are now scaling back. Rather than betting on speculative demos, successful enterprises are treating Voice AI as critical infrastructure. Share As the AI gold rush slows, a new report from Speechmatics explores what's actually working — and where the real value lies. Titled The Voice AI Reality Check: Frontline Perspectives for Enterprise in 2025, the report zeroes in on one of the fastest-evolving areas of AI: Voice AI. Built on interviews with leaders across healthcare, compliance, media, public services, and research, it reveals a clear shift from flashy demos to embedded, operational AI — where tools assist humans, deliver measurable ROI, and quietly power core infrastructure. Report highlights include: Assistive over autonomous: The most effective deployments augment people rather than replace them. Assistive agents are driving real ROI. Multilingual as standard: Real-time code-switching is now a baseline requirement, not a bonus. Accuracy is make-or-break: With growing global concerns over AI hallucinations, precision is essential — especially in compliance-heavy environments. Voice as infrastructure: Quietly embedded tools are outperforming headline-grabbing features. Rather than betting on speculative demos, successful enterprises are treating Voice AI as critical infrastructure. It's being embedded into workflows that demand speed, accuracy, and trust — from noisy control rooms to multilingual contact centres. The report closes with future-looking predictions, outlining the rise of emotionally intelligent, adaptive, and natively multilingual voice systems — and offers guidance on what enterprises must prioritise next.
