Chris Maciejewski, most recently president of Aspen Specialty Insurance Co., will head Naxos Avondale. David Lewis, formerly with Aspen Specialty and The Hartford, will serve as chief underwriting officer.
Business will be sourced through wholesale brokers, and the company will work closely in its distribution efforts with Avoca subsidiary Avondale Insurance Associates.
