KPMG in Bermuda is proud to announce the appointments of Felicia Wilsen, Sarah Robey* and Anam Khan* to Partner at the firm, effective October 1, 2023.
We are thrilled to recognise the outstanding achievements of Felicia, Sarah and Anam. They bring expertise from each area of our business, adding great breadth and depth to our leadership team. As they advance in their careers, the entire KPMG family extends heartfelt congratulations and best wishes for their continued success.
Felicia brings extensive experience in leading audit engagements for both local and international clients. She joined KPMG in South Africa in 2004 and came to Bermuda in 2007. Felicia embodies our Values both in delivering audit services and her community involvement through mentorship, pro-bono services leadership, and various roles like representing KPMG on the CPA Bermuda Board and serving as assistant treasurer for the Bermuda Aquarium Museum and Zoo.
Sarah, with 15 years of public accounting experience in the US and Bermuda, has established herself as a senior leader in the firm’s US tax team. She advises (re)insurance and alternative investment clients on intricate US federal, state, and international tax considerations. Noteworthy is Sarah's leadership in navigating complex subjects such as Bermuda economic substance and BEPS Pillar 2, underscoring her profound expertise.
Anam joined KPMG in 2018, having previously worked in London. With a distinguished 14-year career in the insurance sector, Anam leads KPMG's Actuarial and Management Consulting teams in Bermuda. Over the past five years, she has successfully led strategy and capital optimisation projects and spearheaded the development of the firm's insurance start-up services, playing a crucial role in the successful launch of multiple new insurers in Bermuda’s dynamic market.
In addition to these promotions, KPMG has made the following leadship changes. Adam Smith has been named Head of Advisory and Sector Lead for Insurance. Having been with the firm for 15 years, Adam has deep knowledge of the Bermuda reinsurance market, leading many of our largest engagements as well as growing our market leading ILS practice. Adam replaces Mark Allitt who had been with the firm for over 15 years and is leaving the firm to join Teneo.
I am delighted to announce Adam’s appointment as Head of Advisory and Sector Lead for Insurance. His deep experience and relationships in the Bermuda market will ensure the firm continues to serve the (re)insurance sector with the highest quality and expertise. I would also like to thank Mark for his many years of service and wish him well as he rejoins his former colleagues having guided our advisory team through the transitional period following the disposal of our restructuring practice to Teneo.
Steve Woodward will be taking on the role of Head of People. Steve has been with the firm for 17 years and has been actively involved in driving our people strategy. In addition to leading our Enterprise practice, Steve chairs our Corporate Citizenship Committee and has led the Lift Off program, including the Graduate and Staff accountant program, for close to five years.
Our organisation is full of exceptional talent, and I am looking forward to the bright opportunities that await our firm. Our expanded leadership team will help ensure we are well positioned for a promising future and continue to deliver exceptional quality to our clients and other stakeholders.
