ISMIE Mutual Insurance Co. announced the promotion of Edward J. Carroll, JD, to vice president of underwriting. Carroll will oversee business underwriting for ISMIE and its subsidiaries.

Carroll joined ISMIE Mutual in early 2017 when he was appointed as director of underwriting – new segments. He was brought on to lead product development, distribution management, implementation of rating and pricing models, and underwriting for ISMIE’s expansion strategy. During his brief tenure with ISMIE, the subsidiary ISMIE Indemnity acquired business in a dozen new states.

Carroll began his insurance career at Chubb Specialty Insurance in 2000. Prior to joining ISMIE, he was director of underwriting at Connecticut-based CMIC, a medical professional liability insurance company. He is a graduate of Georgetown University.

“ISMIE is fortunate to have Ed on our team. His promotion is an acknowledgement of his significant contributions to ISMIE’s expansion and business development growth,” said Paul H. DeHaan, MD,ISMIE vice chairman. “We also wish Al Allphin well in his retirement. Al has been an important ISMIE team member for more than 30 years and his leadership will be missed.”

“These are exciting times for ISMIE, and Ed’s the right person to assume underwriting leadership," said Wayne de Nazarie, ISMIE executive vice president. "He’ll play a key role in strengthening our partnerships with brokers and producers to further grow our imprint across the U.S.”
