Everest Creates Private/NFP Business Segment
Everest Re Group, Ltd. announced the formation of a Private Company/Not-for-Profit business segment [Private/NFP] within the Everest Specialty Underwriters unit of Everest Insurance. This new business segment will compliment all areas of Everest’s expanding Financial Lines division. The Private /NFP team will target small, middle and large Private/Not-for-Profit companies and organizations on a primary and excess basis, delivering innovative product and service solutions across many industries.
Joining Everest Insurance to lead this important business segment is Salvatore Collura. In his new role at Everest, Sal has been named Vice President and National Practice Leader of ESU’s Private/Not-For Profit business segment. In addition to overseeing the Private/NFP underwriting operations, Sal will be heavily involved in expanding this offering across the country, leveraging the existing Everest Insurance footprint.

Sal brings to Everest over seventeen years of experience in the insurance industry and extensive knowledge in underwriting management liability, managing alternative risk transfer programs, and implementing foreign professional indemnity policies.
