Richmond, Va.-based Genworth Financial Inc. has named Lori M. Evangel its new executive vice president and chief risk officer, joining the company on Jan. 6.
Genworth says Evangel comes to the company from Aflac Inc., where she served as a managing director and chief risk officer for global investments, while developing the investment division risk management function, including new credit and market risk systems and a new enterprise stress testing framework.
Prior to that, Evangel was senior vice president and enterprise risk officer for MetLife, responsible for developing and leading the global enterprise risk management unit in partnership with a cross-functional team in more than 50 countries.
In conjunction with this announcement, Michel Perreault, formerly Genworth's chief risk officer, will remain with the company as chief risk officer of the U.S. life insurance division.
