(Bloomberg) -- Hartford Financial Services Group Inc. hired Ric Pena from Zurich Insurance Group AG as vice president of a newly created energy practice in a push to expand operations under Chief Executive Officer Chris Swift.
Pena will be based in Frisco, Texas, and report to Tom Boudreau, head of construction and energy insurance, the Hartford, Connecticut-based company said Tuesday in a statement. Pena formerly led Zurich’s energy-casualty business unit, Hartford said.
“Our presence in the energy sector previously was in renewable energy, so with this announcement we are expanding the energy practice to include power and utilities as an initial focus,” Tom Hambrick, a company spokesman, said in an e-mail.
