Allianz Commercial has announced the launch of its Miami Latin America Hub to strengthen its operations and engagement across the region.

The new office is scheduled to open in February 2026 and will support business development, centralising resources and expertise to better serve brokers, clients and partners throughout Latin America.

The hub will leverage Miami’s position as a leading centre and talent pool for the Latin American and Caribbean (re)insurance sector, focusing on facultative reinsurance to support operations in core markets and expand into new territories.

The office will build on Allianz Commercial’s existing business in Brazil, Mexico, Argentina and Colombia, while extending services in Property, Construction & Natural Resources, Financial Lines, including Cyber, Marine and Multinational Services into markets such as Chile, Peru, Ecuador and Panama.

David Colmenares, Commercial Managing Director for Latin America at Allianz Commercial, said: “The Miami hub represents a strategic investment in our Latin American operations. This office will strengthen our regional capabilities and enable us to deliver enhanced service and technical expertise to our brokers and clients in the region.”

Shanil Williams, President, Commercial, Americas at Allianz Commercial, added: “Miami is one of the largest and most mature global commercial insurance and reinsurance hubs, which we are excited to have a new presence in. Opening this hub reflects our strategy to drive diversified growth in Latin America, enhance technical excellence and further integrate the broader Americas region. Miami will be complementary to our local country operations, supporting their own growth and accessing new customers in other markets.”

Allianz Commercial said the Miami hub is part of its ongoing strategy to strengthen its Latin American business and support sustainable and profitable growth across the Americas.
