The Missouri Department of Insurance announced that two veteran financial regulators have been appointed to new positions for the start of 2014.

Leslie Nehring was appointed acting chief financial examiner for the Division of Insurance Company Regulation and John Rehagen was named acting director of the Division of Insurance Company Regulation.

Nehring began her career with the department in 2003 as a financial examiner. She left five years later for private sector experience and became the lead examiner for Regulatory Consultants Inc. in Kansas City. Nehring then returned to the department as an examiner-in-charge. She is a certified public accountant and certified financial examiner.

In his new role, Rehagen will oversee insurance company solvency regulation in Missouri.

Rehagen has been with the department since 2003 and holds a certified financial examiner designation from the Society of Financial Examiners.
