Paul Smith is no amateur when it comes to running an IT department. But for the next 18 months, his focus will be on a major systems integration project–a first in his 25-year career.
“This is a once-in-a-career kind of opportunity to do things better than we've done them in the past,” Smith says. “It's incredibly exciting.”
As the CIO of Hannover Life Reassurance Company of America (HLRUS), Smith is closely involved in the Orlando, Fla.-based company's integration plans after its recent acquisition of Scottish Re's ING individual life reinsurance business. HLRUS is the North American life and health reinsurance subsidiary of Hannover Re in Germany.
