NFP, an Aon company, has announced the appointment of Patrick O’Neill as the new head of its Financial Institutions Group (FIG).

O'Neill, who previously served as senior vice president within FIG focusing on large accounts, succeeds Lauren Kim, who transitions to regional managing director for P&C in the Northeast region.

“This is an exciting opportunity for Patrick that aligns well with the leadership he has shown since joining NFP eight years ago,” Mike Walsh, president of commercial P&C, said in a company statement.

“Our Financial Institutions Group has raised the bar under Lauren’s leadership, and we expect Patrick to continue this momentum. Under his direction and with an outstanding team, we will see more growth while providing impactful insights and solutions to our clients as they navigate a dynamic financial landscape.”

O'Neill joined NFP in 2016 from Everest National Insurance Company. He has extensive experience managing large accounts and delivering solutions that address the complex challenges faced by financial institutions.

“I’m looking forward to leading our Financial Institutions Group, building from a strong foundation and continuing to work with our exceptional team,” said O’Neill.

“Lauren did so much to advance FIG, and we’re well positioned to continue helping clients assess the complex challenges they face and delivering expertise and solutions that help to address them.”

O'Neill will lead a management team that includes Justin Corey, Amy Jenkins, Jaclyn Ross, Nima Seirafipour, and Marc Tauber.

NFP's Financial Institutions Group specifically serves banks, insurance companies, and investment management firms, offering specialized expertise in risk management and insurance solutions.

NFP, which operates as an independent and connected platform within Aon, has over 7,700 employees worldwide and a global revenue exceeding $2 billion. The company provides comprehensive services across property and casualty brokerage, benefits consulting, wealth management, and retirement plan advisory.

The company maintains a strong presence across the United States, Canada, United Kingdom, Ireland, and Puerto Rico.
