MAPFRE USA has appointed Mark Pasko (pictured above) as executive vice president, general counsel and secretary, effective July 21, 2025.

In this role, Pasko will oversee the company’s legal, regulatory, and government affairs in the United States, in addition to leading compliance, state filings, and corporate governance functions.

Pasko joins MAPFRE from QBE North America, where he most recently served as chief legal officer. In that position, he managed legal and regulatory operations across QBE’s North American and Bermuda businesses.

He brings several years of experience in legal leadership within the insurance industry, with a focus on regulatory strategy, enterprise risk and corporate governance.

“We are excited to have Mark join the leadership team at MAPFRE USA,” said Jaime Tamayo, president and CEO of MAPFRE USA.

“He is a seasoned professional with extensive experience in the insurance industry that will directly support our strategic goals. His proven ability to streamline complex operations and cultivate high-performance teams will play a critical role as we continue to pursue growth in an ever-evolving market.”

Pasko joins the executive leadership team as the company continues to adapt to changing regulatory requirements and evolving consumer expectations in the property and casualty market.

Earlier this year, MAPRE USA announced enhancements to its digital claims and policy servicing platforms aimed at improving the customer experience and increasing efficiency across its US operations.

MAPFRE USA is the holding company for a group of property and casualty insurance companies that operate under the MAPFRE Insurance brand. The group is rated “A” (Excellent) by A.M. Best and is the largest auto and home insurer in Massachusetts.

MAPFRE Insurance serves policyholders in 11 states and is part of the MAPFRE Group, a global insurance organization headquartered in Spain with operations in over 30 countries.
