Kevin Kelley to retire from Liberty Mutual Insurance

Kevin Kelley, vice chairman, Global Risk Solutions, will retire from global property & casualty insurer Liberty Mutual Insurance at the end of this year.

In 2017, Kelley joined Liberty Mutual following the company's acquisition of Ironshore, where he was chief executive officer. Under his leadership, Kelley led the company from its start-up beginnings into a global excess and surplus specialty lines insurance company. Kelley also expanded Ironshore's international and US presence with a network of offices offering diverse, specialty insurance coverages throughout its global platform.

"Kevin has a long and distinguished career in the US insurance industry," said Liberty Mutual chairman and chief executive officer David Long. "His leadership, innovative thinking and market expertise has had significant impact to our business."

Kelley added: "Liberty Mutual is a strong, long-standing institution. I enjoyed my experience working with David, his team and the many talented people I came to know and appreciate."

Prior to joining Ironshore, Kelley served as chairman of the board and chief executive officer of Lexington Insurance Company from 1997 – 2008. Kelley was also executive vice president of AIG Property Casualty Group, president of AIG Domestic Personal Lines, and director of CV Starr & Company and Starr International Companies.
