In her new role, Finsness will work closely with Robin Russo, executive vice president and chief underwriting officer, and the underwriting leadership team to monitor current industry trends and emerging risks, provide thought leadership on casualty insurance initiatives, and support strategic underwriting initiatives across Markel.
Finsness will also lead enhanced efforts on casualty catastrophe analysis and mitigation and work closely with Markel's actuarial, risk management, and underwriting teams. She will also lead the Markel Casualty Affiliated Underwriting Group.

We recognize her contributions and are pleased she will be leading these strategic initiatives for Global Casualty Underwriting and Claims," stated Russo.
Finsness will continue to work out of Markel's Bermuda and New York offices and report to Nick Conca, chief claims officer.
