Newly created role expands Chubb's risk engineering and resiliency capabilities for commercial, consumer and government/municipality clients transitioning to a low-carbon economy
Whitehouse Station, N.J., August 26, 2024 - Chubb has named Amelie Fava-Verde to the newly created role of Senior Vice President, North America Chubb Resilience Services. In her new role, Fava-Verde will build and lead a team focused on the development and delivery of resilience and recovery services. She joins Chubb from KPMG LLP, where she served as the U.S. ESG Hub Lead.
Chubb's history in the insurance business has allowed us to develop a wealth of knowledge in risk management and engineering-not only helping customers mitigate risk, but also protecting lives and property, and rebuilding after adverse events. Fava-Verde's 20 years of industry experience in leading environmental risk and sustainability programs will help us leverage Chubb's expertise, knowledge and history of customer service to expand the capabilities of Chubb Resilience Services.
"Our innovative physical risk assessment offering fills a pressing client need to better understand climate driven physical risk and enhance their resiliency as they transition to a low-carbon economy," said Paul O'Neill, Executive Vice President, Chief Underwriting Officer, North America Property, and head of Field Engineering. "This is another way for us to help clients deal with climate - not simply providing assurance, but also giving them ways to better engineer and be more resilient. We are excited to have Amelie collaborate across Chubb's North America divisions, as well as with Chubb Climate+, to harness the full power of our global company and strengthen our world-class capabilities."
Fava-Verde earned a Bachelor of Science degree in environmental geography from University College London and a Master of Science degree in water resources technology from University of Birmingham U.K.
