**RSA Insurance Group plc** (LON:RSA) announced that Scott Egan, Chief Financial
Officer of RSA since October 2015, will assume the role of Chief Executive of RSA’s
UK & International division with effect from 5th February 2019. He continues as 
a member of RSA’s Board reporting to Group CEO, Stephen Hester. The appointment 
is subject to regulatory approval.

Recruitment of a new CFO for RSA is underway and an appointment is expected to be
announced in the coming weeks.

Steve Lewis, currently Chief Executive of RSA’s UK & International division, who
joined RSA in January 2015, will step down from this role and leave RSA.

> **Commenting on the change, Stephen Hester said:**
> “I’d like to thank Steve for his service to RSA over the last four years, leading
> a comprehensive restructuring of our UK&I businesses. In this period there have
> been some notable successes, although UK results in 2017 and 2018 have disappointed,
> particularly due to ‘London Market’ losses in areas now subject to the portfolio
> exits announced last year.
> In Scott we have a strong successor to Steve, who knows the business well and 
> has broad experience in UK general insurance. Scott has done an excellent job 
> as CFO at RSA since joining and I look forward to working closely with him in 
> his new capacity.”
> **Scott Egan said:**
> “I’m delighted to be taking on this role. The UK&I region has undergone substantial
> transformation in recent years. Many of the fundamentals are in place and I look
> forward to working alongside my UK&I colleagues to ensure the region maximises
> its contribution to RSA’s ongoing success.”
