TigerRisk president Tony Ursano steps down

Tony Ursano is stepping down as the president of reinsurance broking and risk/capital management firm TigerRisk Partners.

Following his departure in May, partners Jarad Madea and Stephen Fromm will assume Ursano’s responsibilities, the company said.

Ursano joined TigerRisk in 2015 with the aim to forge the company’s reinsurance broking and investment banking practices into a holistic risk solutions provider and advisor.

"Mr. Ursano’s announcement did not come as a surprise," said Rod Fox, CEO of TigerRisk. “Tony had informed the Board in January of his long-held desire to pursue other interests. He agreed to remain with us into May to see a number of important mandates through to completion. He has built a strong franchise for us which will continue to grow. Naturally, we’re sorry to see him go and wish him the very best.”

Ursano said: “I have enjoyed my time at TigerRisk. I am proud both of the progress the firm has made over the last four years as well as the world-class capital markets and advisory franchise we have built.

"I am certain that 2019 will be Tiger’s best year ever and I look forward to watching the firm’s incredible trajectory of success. I wish each and every Tiger the very best and I look forward to staying in touch with you in my next adventure.”
