Kania Joins Liberty International Underwriters

Liberty International Underwriters, a division of Liberty Mutual Group, named Tim Kania as senior vice president of construction for its North and South America operations.

An insurance executive for more than 20 years, Kania is also a licensed professional engineer. His experience and technical approach help him develop programs and underwriting protocols that address clients’ needs. In his new position, Kania will focus on the energy and heavy industries segments as well as construction all-risk projects.

“One of the key initiatives for our U.S. operations for 2009 and beyond is to write more construction business, especially energy-related projects,” said David Cohen, president of Liberty International Underwriters U.S. “Tim will work with brokers to further expand the classes of business we write, helping brokers place a wider range of their clients’ business.”
