Press Release Body: Aon's marine team is planning to build its book of US business
by appointing Paul White to a newly created role of head of the Americas liability
team.

Paul will develop marine liability business from Aon's North American network and
bring it into the London market. His other responsibilities include running the
team, liaising with clients, broking and providing risk management advice. Paul has
30 years experience in the market and joins from broker Newman Martin and Buchan,
where he was the senior director responsible for liability.

Stephen Hawke, executive director of Aon Marine and chairman of Aon PLF, said: "The
maritime industry plays an important part in driving the huge North American
economy. From the barge traffic along the Mississippi to the offshore business in
the Gulf of Mexico, oil tankers and container vessels all serve to support the
health of the world\'s largest economy. Coupled with the supporting infrastructure
including ports, truckers and warehouses, this vast industry faces wide-ranging
risks which can disrupt the flow of trade and threaten the health of businesses."

"Hence we've appointed Paul, who has an excellent reputation for working with North
American clients, to help drive their business forward. We anticipate more new
hires during the course of this year as we respond to the needs of Aon's global
network and respond to the challenges facing the marine industry."entertainment
