Hardy appoints CEO
Re/insurance underwriter Hardy Underwriting Agencies (Hardy) has appointed David Brosnan as chief executive. Brosnan has also been appointed to serve on the Hardy Board of Directors.
As chief executive of Hardy and as a non-executive director of the CNA Insurance Company (CICL) Board, Brosnan will be based in London. He will work closely with John Hennessy, chief executive of CICL, to develop strategies that will align enterprise-wide capabilities and strengthen international offerings to customers.
“Dave’s experience uniquely qualifies him to lead Hardy in the execution of its critical role in broadening the CNA strategy to expand our geographic and product reach,” said Tom Motamed, chairman of the Hardy Board of Directors and chairman and chief executive officer of CNA Financial Corporation.
Brosnan, who replaces Barbara Merry, has more than 27 years of industry experience. Previous to CNA, he was with ACE Canada, most notably serving as president and CEO of ACE INA and ACE INA Life Insurance Companies. Prior to that, he served as president of ACE casualty risk and held various underwriting positions, including European zone underwriting officer with Chubb in London.
