Patrick Rönnqvist has joined Lockton Sweden as Head of Affinity. Patrick was previously Lead Relationship Manager in Sweden and Finland at Willis Towers Watson (WTW).
Patrick brings over two decades of experience in the insurance industry, with deep expertise in client relationship management, particularly in the Affinity and Embedded Insurance sector. At WTW, Patrick was instrumental in transforming the Affinity business model from a transactional broker to a solutions provider. He significantly expanded the portfolio, driven by his expertise in managing client relationships across Scandinavia.
Patrick’s appointment underscores Lockton’s commitment to expanding its presence in Sweden and the broader Nordic region. His experience will be instrumental in further enhancing Lockton’s Affinity offering, a crucial component in meeting the evolving needs of global clients, and his ability to build and lead high-performing teams will be essential as Lockton Sweden continues to grow.
Patrick’s appointment follows a series of strategic leadership hires in Sweden, including Johan Lindvall, CEO of Lockton Sweden. Lockton’s growing presence in Sweden is part of a broader strategy to meet the increasing demand for unencumbered client service across the Nordics, while reinforcing its market leadership in key areas such as real estate, construction, transactional risk, and private equity.
Patrick comments: "What drew me to Lockton is its unique, entrepreneurial culture that truly empowers its people to make a difference. Lockton stands out to me for its commitment to client-first service and curation of extraordinary talent. I’m excited to join a team where creativity and innovation are encouraged, and I’m eager to lead the Affinity team in Sweden. I see tremendous potential for us to expand our capabilities and support clients with tailored, high-quality solutions, and I look forward to being part of a new and exciting chapter for Lockton in the Nordics."
