Mosaic Insurance has bolstered its underwriting team to provide global capacity in five lines of business to brokers and clients across Canada. The firm opened an office in Toronto, Ontario last July. Since then, it has expanded in the Canadian specialty insurance market across five product lines — cyber, transactional liability, financial institutions, professional liability, and environmental liability. Mosaic has appointed Reynaldo Batac as vice president, underwriter for professional liability, cyber and financial institutions. He brings more than 16 years of experience in several sectors of the insurance industry, including claims adjusting, risk engineering, insurance placement, and underwriting. Kyle Gray has been named vice president, underwriter for cyber. He has 14 years of underwriting experience in specialty insurance, previously leading a start-up Canadian cyber managing general agent. Ricardo Philip has been appointed vice president, underwriter for environmental liability. He has more than 25 years of environmental insurance experience in loss control underwriting. Philip most served as principal for an Ontario environmental contractor. Mosaic has also appointed Charlie Zilvytis vice president, underwriter for transactional liability, focused on complex Canadian and international M&A transaction risks. Previously, he worked as a corporate associate at Osler, Hoskin & Harcourt LLP. Mosaic’s head of Canada, Ian Fraser, comments: “We’re proud of building our team of underwriting talent across all major Canadian geographies.”
