Starr Appoints Capitano to Lead Primary General Casualty-Risk Management

Starr Insurance Companies has named Carmella Capitano, senior vice president, as head of primary general casualty-risk management and excess casualty.

In this new role, Capitano will lead a team serving organizations with revenues of $400 million or more. She will also lead Starr’s excess casualty team. These units insure industries such as hospitality, manufacturing, real estate, communications/telecomm, healthcare and sports venues.

Capitano joined Starr in 2009 from American International Group and progressed as a leader in primary and excess energy.

Dan Conway, executive vice president, specialty casualty, will continue to oversee Starr’s energy unit, with Les Lappe and Greg Cropp, respectively managing the primary and excess divisions.
