Pan-American Life Insurance Group (PALIG), a leading provider of
insurance and financial services throughout the Americas, announced
today that John Foley, President of the U.S. Group business, will
be retiring September 1, 2018. Robert DiCianni, current President
of the company’s International Group business will assume
leadership of the new Global Benefits unit, which consolidates the
International and U.S. Group businesses under one organization.
A nine-year veteran of PALIG, Mr. Foley led the company’s health
and accident employee benefits business, inclusive of product
development and distribution activation, in the United States and
its territories. He also was responsible for the Special Markets
business. Mr. Foley’s time with Pan-American Life caps a long and
distinguished career as an insurance executive, dating back more
than 30 years.
“John has been planning for this moment for some time and he
leaves behind a very strong foundation and team in our Group
Benefits business in the United States,” said José S. Suquet,
Chairman of the Board, President and CEO of Pan-American Life
Insurance Group. “I will miss a true partner who over the last nine
years has been an integral part of the success and historic growth
of Pan-American Life.”
Mr. DiCianni, who has been with PALIG since 2011, will now be
President of Global Benefits with responsibility for the company’s
employee benefits, multinational solutions, individual health and
mass marketing businesses across all geographies. He boasts a long
track record as an insurance executive with various companies in
the U.S. and Latin America.
“The transition of these two groups under the Global Benefits
structure will allow our teams to better leverage best practices
and provide new and expanded opportunities to Pan-American Life
employees,” said Suquet. “Bob has led the transformation of our
International Group business. Under his leadership, the Global
Benefits is poised to deliver on our strategic priorities and drive
future growth.”
