Chicago-based CNA Surety Corp. announced that Douglas W. Hinkle has joined the company as chief underwriting officer.
Hinkle comes to CNA Surety with more than 25 years of insurance experience. Most recently, he was a regional director with St. Paul Surety, a segment of the St. Paul Cos. Inc., where he led underwriting, marketing and operations for its Western region.
