Kelly will be based in CFC’s first office on the ground in Canada, based in Toronto, and will be working closely with Kate as well as CFC’s existing Canada-facing teams in the UK to provide Canadian brokers across the country with enhanced support on these specific lines of business.

I am thrilled to welcome Kelly to the new team that we’re building here in Canada,” Kate Della Mora, CEO, CFC Canada

“Her technical knowledge, relationships and professionalism are second to none and she will be a huge asset to our business as we seek to deepen our partnerships with brokers across the country. I couldn’t ask for a better first appointment and look forward to working alongside Kelly as we continue the amazing growth trajectory of CFC in Canada.”

Kelly joins CFC from Coalition where she has spent the last three and a half years, most recently as Team Lead Canada, Production Underwriting and Business Development. She is a seasoned insurance professional with over a decade of proven industry experience, specialising in cyber and tech insurance.

“CFC is the recognised pioneer of cyber insurance here in Canada and is the market leader for a reason – its product proposition is second to none and it has led the way in the development of proactive cyber protection,” adds McGuinness. “But CFC is so much more than cyber and I’m looking forward to working with Kate and my talented colleagues based in the UK as we continue to expand our Canadian business.”

CFC has been offering its market leading insurance solutions to Canadian brokers for more than two decades. In that time it has grown to become the market leader in cyber and now offers over 20 classes of specialist insurance to protect businesses in nearly every industry with products designed for emerging and technology based risks.
