Oliver Wyman, a management consulting unit of MMC, announced the opening of a Bermuda office today, concurrently releasing a report outlining challenges facing Bermuda insurers and the qualities of leaders needed to handle the challenges.

Challenges, the report said, are high local operating costs, a limited talent pool, a changing regulatory environment and emerging competition to traditional reinsurance products--catastrophe bond growth, in particular.
