Glenn Pomeroy has been the CEO of the not-for-profit CEA-the largest earthquake insurance provider in the United States, and one of the largest in the world-since 2008. He has led bipartisan legislative efforts at both the state and federal level to reduce the cost of earthquake insurance.
Glenn is originally from North Dakota, where he previously served his native state as a member of the North Dakota House of Representatives (he was first elected at age 22), county prosecutor, state Securities Commissioner and North Dakota Insurance Commissioner. While in that role he was selected by his peers from around the country to serve as President of the National Association of Insurance Commissioners. He later worked in the reinsurance industry, first for GE and later Swiss Re.
While at CEA, Glenn has led efforts to make rates more affordable and provide many more choices for consumers regarding policy options. As part of CEA's strategic plan to Educate, Mitigate and Insure, Glenn has been crisscrossing the state in 2017 to spread the news about new options now available from CEA.
