Mary Ellen Moriarty, vice president for property & casualty at EIIA, is the next chair of the Captive Insurance Companies Association (CICA).
The Association held its board meeting on 13 March, the day after its International Conference, and confirmed Moriarty would succeed Nick Hentges, CEO of Captive Resources.
“The need for the captive insurance vehicle has never been as important as it is today which will continue the rapid growth for CICA and the captive insurance industry,” Moriarty said.
“I look forward to working with my board colleagues and our volunteer leaders to continue CICA’s vital role in providing networking and education to support innovation and best practices to enhance industry growth. And we will continue to raise awareness and advocate for our industry while also being prepared to defend against potential threats.”
Moriarty has worked in insurance for more than 30 years and at EIIA since 2002.
EIIA is a not-for-profit which provides insurance and risk management solutions to more than 150 private, faith-inspired higher education institutions.
Heather McClure, general counsel and chief risk officer at Helio, is now CICA vice chair, while Prabal Lakhanpal, senior vice president at Spring Consulting, will be secretary / treasurer.
Nick Hentges serves as the immediate past chair.
