(Adds detail)

LONDON, June 30 (Reuters) - London-listed property and casualty insurer Catlin (CGL.L) on Tuesday named Benjamin Meuli, a former chief investment officer at Swiss Re (RUKN.VX), as its next finance chief.

Meuli, who has also held senior roles at investment banks Morgan Stanley and JP Morgan, joins the Catlin board on Tuesday and will take over the role of chief financial officer at an unspecified date later this year, the company said in a statement.

Meuli will replace outgoing CFO Christopher Stooke, who announced his departure on June 12, six years after joining the group.

Catlin also said it had appointed Robert Gowdy, a former chief executive of U.S. insurer CGU, as an independent non-executive director, replacing Michael Eisenson, who is retiring.
