Illinois Gov. Pat Quinn has named a new top state insurance regulator.
Andrew Boron has been appointed director of the Illinois Department of Insurance (DOI), the governor’s office announced. The department has been under the direction of three separate acting directors since last summer when Michael McRaith left to head the Federal Insurance Office.
Boron brings a career of insurance, governmental and private sector experience to DOI. He returns to state government after working as vice president and counsel at the ACE Group, where he served as primary liaison to insurance departments in nine states, including Illinois. He also served as deputy chief of staff at the Illinois Toll Highway Authority between 2009 and 2010. Boron began his career at CNA Financial, serving as counsel and then director of state government relations.
The agency currently employs about 260 people, the Associated Press reported.
