Distinguished Programs Announces Contract Surety Program Led by Trevor Hash
NEW YORK – Distinguished Programs (“Distinguished”), a leading national insurance program manager, has announced the addition of a Contract Surety program, led by Trevor Hash. The program will offer customized contract bonding solutions for businesses in diverse industries. The team aims to launch operations and begin underwriting in the third quarter of this year.
Distinguished has executed a program management agreement with American Surety, a wholly owned subsidiary of Core Specialty Insurance Holdings, Inc. to support the Surety offering.
Hash leads the new program with almost 30 years of experience in the surety industry. Supported by a skilled team of underwriters, his leadership enhances Distinguished’s ability to make a meaningful entrance into the surety market.
“We are thrilled to have recruited a team as high quality as Trevor and his new colleagues,” says Jason Rotman, President and CFO of Distinguished Programs. “We have incredible conviction that Trevor will build a business that is responsive to his customer needs and provide exceptional underwriting results to American Surety.”
“It is a privilege to spearhead the Surety program with Distinguished,” says Trevor Hash, President of Distinguished Surety. “The strength of our Surety program lies in the expertise of our team and our solid industry relationships. We are dedicated to using these assets to offer innovative and reliable bonding services that exceed our agents’ expectations.”
The surety program will complement Distinguished’s existing products designed for fine art and collectibles, environmental, real estate, community associations, hotels, and restaurants, as well as their Executive Lines and Inland Marine programs launched earlier this year.
Distinguished enlisted the assistance of U.S. Recruiting Inc to recruit the Surety team.
