Ironshore Expands U.S. Distribution Network

Ironshore Inc. will be expanding its distribution network by establishing regional offices throughout the United States.

Steven England has been appointed executive vice president of Ironshore Insurance Services, responsible for overseeing Ironshore’s U.S. Field Operations. Ironshore Insurance Services has opened offices in geographic markets to work with retail brokers on a regional basis.

Ironshore Insurance Services also named new regional executives to lead its efforts in the following regional territories: David Rogers, Midwest (Chicago); Bob Newmarker, Northeast (Boston); Kevin Fee, Mid-Atlantic (Philadelphia); Ron Gleason, South Central (Houston); Wade Pitman, Southwest (Los Angeles); Michael Gill, Gulf Coast (New Orleans).

“Ironshore is expanding its distribution capabilities for retail partners to access Ironshore’s property and casualty capabilities as we continue to build on our success in meeting the needs of insureds and brokers,” said England.

England, who joined Ironshore in December 2008, will continue to manage the Wholesale Property and Casualty office based in St. Louis, Mo. The St. Louis Property and Casualty operation will continue to market to the wholesale distribution channel under the new name Ironshore Risk Agency.

Ironshore provides broker-sourced specialty commercial property and casualty coverages for risks located throughout the world. Through its platform in Bermuda, including Iron-Starr Excess, Ironshore writes property and excess casualty insurance for global commercial risks.
