In January, 2015, the company’s general manager, Lino Ferris, retired from his position and has been appointed Special Projects Manager, Mr. Ferris is succeeded by two senior executives who have been working with the company for many years. The two new general managers aim to take the company to new heights and intend to focus on staff training in order to help the company retain and improve its position at the forefront of the Maltese insurance market.

Anthony Cauchi has been with the company for 20 years and during this period he studied for his Associateship of the Chartered Insurance Institute (ACII).

In 2011, Mr Cauchi began reading for a Master’s Degree (MBA, Exec.) at the University of Malta, graduating in November 2014.

Elmo was formed as a result of a merger in 1981 between C&H Bartoli and Cassar & Cooper, two local agents for UK insurance principals Sun Insurance and London Assurance. Sometime after these two companies merged and formed Sun Alliance, their agents in Malta decided to merge as well and thus Elmo Insurance was formed. In 2004, Royal Sun Alliance pulled out of Malta and on 1 May 2004, with Malta’s accession to the EU, Elmo became a fully-fledged local insurance company regulated by the MFSA, with all the legal obligations this entails.
