“No matter how many clients I have, I make sure to call each one personally every quarter. It’s a chance to not only update them on their portfolio, but also check on how they’re doing personally”

Sedi Asem is a managing director at Euclid Transactional, where he has been underwriting representation and warranty insurance for over four years. He began his professional career working as a government contracts accountant at CACI International. Thereafter, he spent almost four years at White & Case LLP, where he served as a corporate attorney in the mergers and acquisitions group.
Since joining Euclid Transactional in 2020, Asem has become a trusted underwriter for major multibillion-dollar deals. In his current role, he also functions as the US lead for cross-border deals that require collaboration among Euclid’s North American, European, and Asian offices.
Asem routinely works with brokers and clients to develop creative and customized coverage solutions to address complex transactional risks. When claims are filed, he works alongside Euclid’s in-house claims team to evaluate them efficiently and negotiate fair settlements to foster strong relationships with clients and brokers.
He has played a key role in leading training opportunities and cross-team collaboration within the firm, and has been a mentor to and advocate for many junior underwriters and analysts. He is frequently called upon to provide advice on procedural and commercial issues encountered by colleagues across Euclid’s offices globally.
Outside of work, Asem is the head of the mentoring program of DREAMChasers, a nonprofit providing Specialized High School Admissions Test (SHSAT) tutoring and mentoring to low-income and underrepresented students interested in attending one of New York City’s specialized high schools.
