Lauren Gregory has joined Alliant Insurance Services as senior vice president of the firm’s specialty group, Public Entity.
Located in New York, Gregory will serve as a leader in Alliant Public Entity focusing on public entity and infrastructure.
Gregory expands Alliant’s expertise in public entity to the East Coast and will structure a public entity and infrastructure team to provide more responsive and proactive service to East Coast-based public agencies.
She will also develop new public entity and construction clients.
Prior to joining Alliant, Gregory was executive vice president of a global insurance brokerage firm where she worked closely with the world’s largest port authority and some of the largest public entities in the country, including the New York Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA) as director of MTA Risk and Insurance Management.
Gregory has also served as senior vice president of a risk management consulting firm where she specialised in captives. She formed the first captive insurance company in the state of New York and was appointed as president of the company in 2003.
Michael Cusack, co-chief operating officer, Alliant Specialty, says: “Lauren Gregory’s extensive risk management experience, legal background, and underwriting knowledge adds significant fire power to our team in New York.”
He adds: “We are strong drivers in the West Coast public entity market, and with Gregory at Alliant, we have immediately advanced our public entity infrastructure capabilities in the East.”
