Gene Boxer was appointed to the newly created role of Chief Strategy Officer of Sirius Group, and will be responsible for guiding the development and driving the delivery of the company's strategic initiatives.  He will also continue to serve as Executive Vice President, Group General Counsel of Sirius Group. 

Each of Mr. Oberting, Ms. Cramér Manhem and Mr. Boxer will continue to report to Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Allan L. Waters, and will serve with Mr. Waters on Sirius Group's new Management Committee.  The Committee is the senior decision-making body responsible for the oversight of the day-to-day business operations of Sirius Group.

Mr. Waters said, "The strength of Sirius lies in its people.  Each of Kip, Monica and Gene exemplify the talent, experience, culture and work ethic of our organization.  Monica has been with Sirius Group affiliates since 1985 and has been a key architect of our underwriting engine.  Kip joined the team in 1995 and has been in the middle of our M&A, capital and strategic planning from day one.  Gene, while newer to the team, hit the ground running and has shown extraordinary skills in managing our recent M&A transactions and public company preparations.  Talent and culture run deep in Sirius; these three are the tip of the iceberg."
