Courtney Claflin has been voted to fill an open seat on the Captive Insurance Companies Association (CICA) board.
Claflin will fulfill the remaining term vacated by Ken Arguello, senior director of risk management at Schwarz Partners, who has recently changed responsibilities within his organisation.
Currently executive director of captive programmes at the University of California, Claflin brings 30 years of experience in the insurance industry, including serving as the principal architect of numerous captives.
CICA president Dan Towle said: "Ken Arguello was a great contributor and I want to thank him for his years on the board and service to CICA. We are excited to welcome Courtney Claflin to the board. He has a genuine passion for captives and experience with operating both a single parent captive and a risk retention group.”
Claflin added: “Being a member of the CICA board of directors allows me to further contribute to the captive space and bring my years of experience to the table in support of CICA's mission. I look forward to this exciting opportunity and working with Dan Towle and my fellow board members.”
