Energi, the parent company to multiple specialised insurance programmes, has appointed Michael Windstein as chief underwriting officer (CUO).
Windstein will be responsible for supporting the underwriting operations with the recent launch of Energi’s eCaptiv programmes for the energy and transportation industries.
A Vermont-based captive insurance company, eCaptiv is aimed at energy companies in fuel distribution, energy transportation, energy construction, renewable energy, agriculture cooperative, and utilities.
Windstein has been named CUO after spending more than six and half years at Energi, previously serving as assistant vice president of underwriting, and director of underwriting.
Prior to joining the company, he was assistant vice president and underwriting manager at Victor O. Schinnerer and was an underwriter for the Global Energy Middle Market (GEMM) programme at AIG specialising in the oil and gas industry.
Timothy Kolojay, president and chairman of eCaptiv, commented: “Windstein has been a strong asset to the underwriting operations at Energi.”
“His experience and knowledge of the insurance and energy industry will be critical in the success of the eCaptiv programmes.”
