Vantage Group Holdings Ltd. (Vantage), a specialty insurance and reinsurance business, has announced the appointment of Yves Charbonneau as Chief Risk Officer.
Charbonneau succeeds Krista Robinson, who is departing following five years at the company to pursue a new opportunity.
Charbonneau will also serve as a member of the Vantage Leadership team.
He brings nearly three decades of actuarial and enterprise risk leadership across the insurance and reinsurance industries.
Most recently, he headed the actuarial function at Arch Insurance Company Ltd. in Canada, where he established a portfolio management culture and transformed enterprise data analytics and strategy to deliver profitable growth and strong underwriting discipline.
Alongside this, he provided board-level governance and risk oversight as a director and audit committee member of Coface SA.
Prior to that, he held various roles at Arch Reinsurance Ltd. in Bermuda, including Chief Risk Officer, Chief Actuary, and Head of Actuarial Function for Arch Re Europe.
The appointment follows Vantage’s recent acquisition by Howard Hughes Holdings in June 2026.
Marc Grandisson, Executive Chairman of Vantage, said, “Yves’s track record, from building enterprise risk frameworks in Bermuda to leading capital and reserving discipline across multiple platforms, reflects the exact rigour we need at the centre of Vantage’s risk function as we continue our momentum under Howard Hughes Holdings.”
Charbonneau commented, “Vantage has built a dynamic, highly differentiated platform across the North American and Bermuda re/insurance markets.
“I look forward to partnering with the leadership team to advance our disciplined expansion and drive sustainable, profitable performance across the portfolio.”
