Everest Re Group has announced that Debbie Weiser has joined Everest Insurance as the newly-appointed leader of excess casualty within Everest Specialty Casualty.

“Debbie brings to Everest extensive experience in the umbrella and excess space, particularly in the valued middle market client segment,” said Connie Germano, head of specialty casualty. “With over thirty years in the insurance business, Debbie is a highly respected underwriter within the Excess Casualty community with longstanding broker and client relationships. Her unique combination of leadership in claims and underwriting in the middle market space is a significant advantage for Everest and our clients.”

Weiser began her career at Chubb as a casualty claims adjustor.
