Vesttoo, the insurtech that uses proprietary artificial intelligence and machine learning to help companies assess and transfer risks to the capital markets, with a particular focus on non-catastrophe insurance-linked securities (ILS), has been expanding its team over recent months, with numerous senior hires.

We strongly believe in the key role of brokers in the market and Dan’s knowledge and experience are sure to strengthen our relationships, as well as increase market acceptance and accelerate our global growth.”

“I am excited to begin working for Vesttoo,” Dijak added. “Working to expand the coverage available for insurers is sure to add tremendous value to our industry. Vesttoo’s track record proves that we are well positioned to provide new streams of capital to the reinsurance sector.”

Vesttoo recently hired experienced insurance-linked securities (ILS) executive Stefano Sola who joined the company in the role of Global Head of Capital Markets.
