W. R. Berkley Corporation Names Michael Marcus President of Berkley Industrial Comp

W. R. Berkley Corporation (NYSE: WRB) today announced the appointment of Michael Marcus as president of Berkley Industrial Comp. He succeeds Chandler F. Cox, Jr., who has been named chairman of the business. The appointments are effective immediately.

Mr. Marcus joined Berkley in 2008 as a regional director at Key Risk and most recently served as Key Risk’s senior vice president – sales, distribution and business analytics. He has more than 30 years of commercial property and casualty insurance experience and holds a Bachelor of Arts degree from Louisiana State University

Mr. Cox co-founded Berkley Industrial Comp (formerly American Mining Insurance Group) and has served as its president and chief executive officer since 2000.
