LAKEWOOD RANCH — Gulfstream Property and Casualty Insurance Co. named industry veteran Douglas Reynolds president and CEO.
Reynolds replaces Kerry Ford, vice president of underwriting at Gulfstream, who was interim president, according to a release.

“Doug has built a reputation as a strategic leader galvanizing growth in startups, national and global companies,” Gulfstream Chairman Bryan Rivers says in the release. “With an exceptional track record in the insurance industry, both domestically and internationally, Doug is well-positioned to lead Gulfstream's continued success in our home state of Florida and additional expansion along the hurricane-exposed Gulf and Atlantic coast states.”
