    Mr. Ian Lim, Chief Executive Officer of Lexasure Financial Group and President of Front Street Re, stated, "Please join me in congratulating Edison as he assumes the CEO role at Front Street Re.

I believe that Lexasure's strategy of tailored products combined with digital platforms that reduce customer transaction costs and benefit the global insurance ecosystem is overdue in this market and look forward to pursuing a wide range of new partnerships to support and grow the insurance industry together."

    Prior to joining the Company, Mr. Fong worked at Converge Re, a reinsurance company focusing on asset-intensive reinsurance in the life and annuities markets in the US, based in New York City. Prior to that, Mr. Fong spent the majority of his career in Toronto at Manulife Financial (NYSE:MFC), where he held leadership roles building a project team within the Global Variable Annuities division and had previously worked in the Group Risk Capital and U.S. Life departments. He also accumulated a diverse range of experiences across all facets of actuarial functions with multinational companies in North America and the U.K. and currently serves on committees for the Canadian Institute of Actuaries and the American Academy of Actuaries.

    Mr. Fong earned a Bachelor of Mathematics with a double major in actuarial science, finance, and statistics with a minor in economics at the University of Waterloo in Ontario, Canada. He is also a designated Member of the American Academy of Actuaries, a Fellow of the Society of Actuaries, a Fellow of the Canadian Institute of Actuaries, a Chartered Enterprise Risk Analyst, and a Chartered Financial Analyst (CFA) charter holder.
