Chubb has promoted John Lupica, current vice-chairman, Chubb Group, and president of the company’s North America major accounts and specialty insurance team, to the role of president of North America insurance.

The appointment is effective September 01, 2020. Lupica will report jointly to Chubb chairman and CEO Evan Greenberg, as well as Chubb executive vice-chairman and chief operating officer John Keogh.

As president of Chubb North America, Lupica will have executive responsibility for the company’s general insurance business in the US, Canada, and Bermuda. This includes commercial P&C, personal lines, agriculture, and accident and health insurance. His responsibilities will include all products, underwriting, marketing and sales, claims, actuarial and support functions related to its business lines, a company release explained.

“I have worked with John Lupica for many years. He has grown in that time to become an outstanding leader and insurance professional,” commented Greenberg on the appointment.

“From managing professional lines, to major accounts, to Chubb Bermuda, to Westchester, and finally to assuming responsibility for our field operations and agriculture insurance business, over the years John has proven his ability to learn, lead, grow and make better any business he touches,” the CEO added.

“John Lupica and I have been partners for nearly 15 years, and he is without doubt one of our industry’s most experienced and accomplished insurance executives,” stated Keogh, adding that since the ACE-Chubb merger in 2016, the North America P&C business has operated under the guidance of two leaders.

“The time has come to have one outstanding executive lead this premier business spanning all of our divisions including our retail and wholesale commercial P&C businesses.”
