New CIO for Ascot’s US business
Bermuda-domiciled specialty re/insurer Ascot Group has appointed Andrew MacDonald as US chief information officer.
Reporting to chief information officer Owen Williams, MacDonald will be responsible for technology solutions to optimize Ascot’s US business strategy, developing a business technology roadmap, and managing large business and technology projects.
He was previously principal of Insurance212 Solutions, an insurtech and transformation program business he also founded. Before that, he was chief information officer at Kemper Property & Casualty and held leadership roles at CNA, The Hartford, and Innovation Group/ Huan.
“In his three decades as an insurance IT professional, Andrew has proven himself to be an effective and respected leader with deep technical knowledge and experience,” said Williams.
“As we continue to lead Ascot with a client-centric, risk-centric, and tech-centric mindset, Andrew’s forward-thinking mindset and experience driving growth and transformation initiatives at large P&C organizations will be critical to leading our transformation and growth in the digital age.”
