Godhwani will be responsible for all North America Region underwriting and underwriting support groups, customer & broker engagement, and BHSI’s Global Catastrophe Engineering & Analytics group, a release said. He has over 25 years of industry experience and is a fellow of the Casualty Actuarial Society. In his new role, he will continue to be based in Boston.
As global chief operating officer, Bresnahan will oversee real estate and administration, finance, audit, information technology and operations throughout BHSI’s global platform. He will also remain in Boston as part of his new responsibility.
“Sanjay and Dave have been pivotal in the building of BHSI since our launch in 2013, helping to build our product lines, our talented team and our positive culture,” commented BHSI president and CEO Peter Eastwood. “In their new roles, they will have a continued positive impact on our team and our ability to bring certainty and service excellence to our customers and distribution partners around the globe.”
