Bangalore , Aug. 8

SWISS Re has appointed Mr Anders Ihr as Managing Director of its fast-growing global shared service centre located in Bangalore.

A Swiss Re release said here on Monday that Mr Ihr replaced Mr Thomas Zuerrer who has returned to the company's headquarters in Zurich this month, after five years in the role.

The Bangalore centre takes care of the back office operations of one of the world's largest reinsurers.

Operated since 2001 to service the company's Asian property & casualty business, the Swiss Re shared service centre in Bangalore would see significant expansion in 2005, the release said.

The operations in Bangalore would be exclusively in the form of "internal BPO" and would not be involved in front office operations, which includes acquiring business, a Swiss Re spokesperson said.

Currently, the centre employs 200 professionals.
