Paul Hartley Named President of CIGNA International, Succeeding Terry Kendall

Philadelphia (ots/PRNewswire)

CIGNA Corporation announced today
that it will appoint Paul Hartley as president of CIGNA
International, reporting to CIGNA Chairman and CEO H. Edward Hanway.
Hartley, who most recently served as chief executive officer of
CIGNA's Asia-Pacific region, succeeds Terry Kendall, who passed away
last week following a prolonged illness. Kendall had led CIGNA
International since 1999.
In making the announcement, Hanway noted that Kendall was
instrumental in establishing CIGNA International as an industry
leader. "Terry and his team have consistently delivered strong
business growth and results, and they can be exceptionally proud of
their accomplishments in a very competitive market," Hanway said.
"CIGNA is a stronger company as a result of Terry's many
contributions. With his passing, we have all lost a good friend and
valued colleague."
Hartley joined CIGNA in 1985 and has successfully held a variety
of important leadership roles, including responsibility for treasury
and capital management for CIGNA International, serving as chief
executive officer of CIGNA's Hong Kong operations and as vice
president of life operations in Southeast Asia prior to assuming his
current role as chief executive officer of CIGNA's Asia-Pacific
region.
"Under Paul's leadership, our Asia-Pacific operations have grown
rapidly and CIGNA has become an acknowledged market leader in the
region in providing innovative life, accident and health insurance
products and services through affinity partners," Hanway said.
Hartley is a graduate of the University of Sheffield & Hallam in
England, and is an FCA. He is also a fellow of the Institute of
Chartered Accountants in England and Wales. He will become a member
of CIGNA's executive management team. His successor for CIGNA
International's leader in the Asia-Pacific region will be identified
in the coming weeks.
"I am confident that given Paul's extensive experience, deep
knowledge and leadership skills, he and his team will continue CIGNA
International's successful record of focused growth and
profitability," Hanway said.
