Enrique always had a liking for the sea which was why he
began his career in the Merchant Navy.
Hesays:“ThiscouldonlyhavecomefromthePortuguese
side of my family - my great grandfather was an admiral
in the Portuguese fleet.” So it would seem almost natural
that his career path would lead him to a life at sea.
Enrique remained in the Merchant Navy for eight years
until a twist of fate changed everything. With the fall of the
Berlin Wall and the collapse of the Soviet Union, merchant
shipping was suddenly flooded with a never-ending influx
of sailors from Eastern European countries like Poland and
Russia.Enriquerealisedthetimehadcomeforacareerchange.
Luckily, his academic training left him well-prepared.
Aside from subjects connected to navigation, Enrique
had studied others related to law, insurance, maritime

in a new direction.
First steps in the world of insurance
It was here his path crossed into the world of insurance.
Insurance companies in Spain were recruiting staff
for a number of developing classes, including life and
transport insurance, and in a happy coincidence, there
was a requirement for a maritime insurance specialist
within the transport business.

little ‘real’ knowledge of the insurance business. “I knew
aboutboats,IknewabouttransportandIknewabouttrade
–becauseIhadsailedallaroundtheglobe.Butinsurance
was new to me,” he explains.
It was at this time a decisive figure was to appear in
Enrique’s life; the now-retired Director of Sun Alliance’s
Transport Department. Enrique continues: “I had a great
mentor, he taught me everything I know about insurance
and he did it the old-fashioned way.”
Enrique fondly remembers the time he spent with the
manwhowasatruementorforhim.Overanumberofyears,
hespenteveryafternoonansweringthequestionsEnrique
asked while enthusiastically studying policy clauses. He
describes this as ‘a truly marvellous time’.
There was a somewhat ‘romantic’ concept of
underwriting that fired Enrique’s passion for his role. He
discovered even a signature scribbled on a napkin was
enough to close a deal, remembering the time when a
client would say ‘that’s 500 million, here’s my signature
and we’re done’.
Enrique recognised the world of insurance and its
wide range of options on offer was similar in scope to the
grandeur of the sea. He continues: “In the end, we insure
everything. Indeed, anything and everything can be
insured, from a multinational or an oil company to a tiny
corner shop. And the potential is infinite.”

In 2001, when Liberty bought Royal Sun Alliance in
Spain, Enrique embraced a new challenge in his life. It
was known on the market that the company intended to
close down its industrial insurance branch. At the time,
a large part of Enrique’s time was devoted to the brokers’
market, so when broker EOS invited him to take up the
position of Managing Director, he decided to accept. Eric
says:“EveryonewastellingmethatIwasonthewrongside
of the table, that I was more of a broker than an insurer,
andIhearditsooftenthatIendedupbelievingit.”Shortly
afterwards, he would be appointed CEO and for the next
14 years, until 2015, Enrique managed EOS RISQ in Spain.
An irresistible challenge
In 2015, Enrique was challenged to take on an innovative
project; a joint venture in Spain spearheaded by two of
Europe’s leading brokers, Filhet-Allard and MDS. Enrique
comments: “The fusion of a multi-generation family
Company with vast experience in the insurance sector
in Europe and a Company with the power, magnitude,
grandeurandturnoverofMDSwasanirresistiblechallenge.”
As CEO of this joint-venture, Enrique believes the
Company has everything it takes to be successful: “Our
targetmarketisoneessentiallymadeupofbusinesseswho
needmorebrokerstoactprofessionallyandwhocanprovide
clients with a specialised service. There is a worthwhile
gap waiting to be filled in the Spanish insurance market;
while the number of players may fall, those that remain
will grow in size. Logically this merger movement can
only be undertaken by leading companies that belong to
stronggroups,aswedo.Wehavetheexperience,know-how,
professionalism and global dimension, and we develop
customisedsolutionsadaptedtoourclients’needs,locally
and internationally.”
The future of the insurance industry
At a time when the Spanish economy is finally seeing an
upturnandMadridisbecominganinternationalinsurance
and reinsurance centre for the Latin American market,

insurance sector.
The first is the impact of the Solvency II programme
on the insurance market. Without casting doubt on the
security the new regime will bring, it nevertheless raises
the pressing question of insurance companies’ capacity
to take the new requirements on board and still stay in
business.Enriqueasks:“Howmanyoftoday’splayerswill
still be in the market five years from now?”
The second is the question of dimension (scale) and
internationalisation. In Enrique’s opinion, only two
CompaniesontheSpanishmarketembodytheseprinciples.
OneisMAPFRE,atrulyimpressivefirmwithinternational
scope. And the other, although operating in the specific
sector of credit and surety, is Atradius. The remainder,
conducting business sporadically in various operations,
do not have the capacity for a global venture.

On a personal note
In his free time, Enrique enjoys taking part in sport. He
currently plays padel – the game is growing in popularity
and is a combination of tennis, squash and badminton.
Miniature trains and photography are long-standing
passions that have now been put on the back burner.
When asked if he lives by a particular motto, Enrique
replies: “It used to be ’make others happy’, but over time I
have come to realise that life is long and sometimes hard,
withmanyobstaclestoovercome.Although‘makingothers
happy’ is still essential, I believe we must not neglect our
own happiness, so I have to be happy too.” •
