Stewart Announces Promotion of Iain Bryant to Group President – Agency Services
HOUSTON (May 30, 2024) – Stewart Information Services Corporation (NYSE: STC) today announced the promotion of Iain Bryant to Group President – Agency Services.
Of the promotion, Fred Eppinger, CEO, said, “I am excited to have Iain as a member of our Executive Leadership Team. Over the last several years, he has been a critical part of the Agency Leadership team and has had an integral role in establishing and executing our Agency strategic plans. Iain is a proven leader with a strong customer focus and will continue to deliver valuable support to our independent Agent customers.”
Bryant joined Stewart in 2021 through the A.S.K. Services acquisition where he was Principal and Co-Owner. Since 2022, he has served as the Central States Agency District Manager overseeing the products and services provided to Stewart’s independent Agent partners in 17 states.

"Our product offerings are fundamentally stronger now and our Agency Services team is well positioned to act as a strategic partner for our customers. I am thankful for Tara’s many contributions to Stewart.”
