After years of pruning a program book that once commanded $500 million in gross premiums, Lois Massa, vice president of Swiss Re's program division, has been given the green light to grow her business again–and she's excited about the prospect.
Speaking to National Underwriter in March at the NAPSLO midyear conference in Palms Springs, Calif., Ms. Massa described the historical “ebbs and peaks” that she says were eliminated when Swiss Re acquired GE Insurance Solutions.
When the deal was done, Swiss Re went through a detailed review of all the profit centers, “and one of the recommendations for our program segment was to expand our risk appetite, which we had wanted to do,” according to Ms. Massa, who is based in Overland Park, Kan.
