Aspen offers board seat to Florida insurance commissioner

Aspen Insurance Holdings has appointed a former Florida insurance commissioner to its board of directors.

David Altmaier joins its board as a non-executive director, subject to regulatory approvals, with over a decade of experience with the regulator.

Altmaier was previously with Florida’s Office of Insurance Regulation (OIR) and was commissioner of insurance for the state from April 2016 to December 2022. With the OIR since 2008, he previously served as director of property & casualty financial oversight and deputy commissioner of property and casualty insurance.

During his time at the OIR, he was a member of Florida’s Blockchain Task Force and, during the COVID-19 pandemic, a member of Florida’s Re-Open Florida Task Force Industry Working Group on Agriculture, Finance, Government, Healthcare, Management and Professional Services.

Altmaier has also held multiple leadership positions within The National Association of Insurance Commissioners, most recently as president.

“I am delighted to welcome David to the board of Aspen,” said Aspen group chief executive officer and chairman Mark Cloutier. “His extensive regulatory experience and standing in the industry will make him an excellent addition to our board of directors. I look forward to working with him and our fellow directors as we continue to strengthen Aspen’s position within the market.”
