Allianz Partners has promoted Dr Francois-Xavier Duchateau to group chief medical officer (CMO).
He will oversee the medical activities of Allianz Partners’ worldwide entities across medical assistance and international health in his new role.

For the past five years, he has been deputy group CMO within the group medical operations team.
Tomas Kunzmann, CEO and board member of Allianz Partners, said: “Francois-Xavier combines a deep expertise in the field of medicine with an understanding of the complexities of our global business.
“In his new leadership role, he is uniquely placed to add strategic input to our medical operations and implement best practices to meet our customers’ needs.”
