Odyssey Reinsurance Company (OdysseyRe) has appointed Daniel Boisvert (pictured above) as senior vice president for its property treaty unit.
Boisvert joins OdysseyRe with more than 20 years of experience in reinsurance, previously serving as senior vice president of treaty underwriting at Munich Reinsurance America. His career also includes leadership positions at American International Group and Guy Carpenter.
Brian Quinn, CEO of North America at OdysseyRe, said Boisvert will enhance the company’s property treaty team with his analytical abilities and underwriting expertise.
Boisvert holds the CCRMP designation from the Casualty Actuarial Society and is a CIP through the Insurance Institute of Canada. He earned a Bachelor of Science degree from the University of Toronto.
Based in Stamford, Connecticut, he will report to Joseph Guardo, executive vice president of OdysseyRe.
“We’re excited to have Daniel join Odyssey,” Quinn said. “His analytical skills and underwriting expertise are excellent additions to our property treaty team.”
This leadership appointment comes as part of a broader organizational transition within Odyssey Group Holdings. In March, the company announced its ongoing succession plan, set to take effect on Jan. 1, 2025. Carl Overy, currently global CEO of Odyssey Reinsurance Company, will take over as CEO of Odyssey Group, replacing Brian Young.
Young will shift to the role of president of Fairfax Insurance Group, the parent company of Odyssey. In his new position, he will work alongside Andrew Barnard, who will assume the role of chairman of Fairfax Insurance Group. Together, they will oversee Fairfax’s global reinsurance and insurance operations.
“I’m very excited to become Odyssey’s third CEO in its 28-year history and build on the incredible momentum that Brian has generated during his tenure,” Overy said. “He has imparted a great deal of wisdom and valued principles that will carry us for many years to come. Please join me in thanking him for his steadfast leadership and wishing him the very best as he embarks on a new journey with our parent company, Fairfax.”
