Berkshire Hathaway Specialty Insurance (BHSI) has announced the appointment of two key executives in Italy.
Vincenza Viele has been named head of claims while Alessandro Majerna will take on the role of head of professional indemnity (PI) and cyber for Executive & Professional Lines. Both are based out of Milan.
Majerna has over 15 years in professional indemnity and cyber insurance.
Viele comes with more than two decades of experience in loss adjusting and claims management and her career includes handling complex property and casualty claims for both large corporate customers and multinational programmes.
BHSI Italy country manager Leonardo Castrichino said: “We are excited to expand our team in Italy with professionals who bring both excellent capabilities and strong character to our organisation.

Alessandro comes to BHSI with excellent experience and a passion for his work that will serve our business, our customers, and our brokers well in Italy and beyond.”
