White has more than 50 years of insurance industry experience. He served as president of insurance operations for the FPIC Insurance Group before it became part of The Doctors Company. White is chairman of the board of the Florida Justice Reform Institute, a member of the board of governors of the Florida Medical Malpractice Joint Underwriting Association, a member of the board of the Florida Insurance Council, and a member of the board of Professionals Resource Network. He served on the board of directors of the Medical Professional Liability Association and serves on three of its committees.

Prior to taking her new role, Srivastava served as the company’s chief information officer and chief information security officer.
“Ms. Srivastava clearly has the background and experience for this vital role leading our MPL efforts,” Anderson said. “She fully possesses the attributes that we value in our leaders – humble, mission-driven, and collaborative, with a people-development focus. The strengths she has shown in leading IT – her ability to manage effectively between enterprise and business unit perspectives and the continuous improvement of projects she has overseen – make her the right leader for MPL.”
