Steve McFarland has joined MSL Captive Solutions (MSL), a specialist underwriting and consulting services firm as managing director.
In his new role, McFarland will be directing the firm's underwriting and administrative services.
He brings with him more than 30 years of experience in the industry and has been involved in medical stop-loss captives since the mid-1990s.
McFarland will join Phillip Giles as co-head of MSL, which was formed at the beginning of the year, with a focus on serving single-parent and group medical stop-loss captives.
Most recently, McFarland was vice president – specialty markets for a stop-loss carrier where he managed the underwriting and product support for the captive business team.
Commenting on his new role, McFarland said: “I am excited to be joining Phil [Giles] at MSL Captive Solutions. This is a growing market and we believe there are significant opportunities for an independent underwriting service supporting medical stop-loss captives”.
Giles added: “I am really happy to have Steve join our team. He is a leading expert in stop-loss captives and brings an exceptional level of technical expertise and insight to MSL Captive Solutions.”
