Crawford & Co. expands regional CEO's role to Asia-Pacific

Crawford & Co. on Wednesday said the company's Sydney-based Pacific CEO, Andrew Bart, has assumed the role of CEO for Asia-Pacific, effective immediately Nov. 1.

The Atlanta-based claims management provider had announced in September that President and CEO Jeffrey Bowman was stepping down and that Crawford board member Harsha Agadi would act as interim CEO.

The Crawford board's executive committee is leading a search for a permanent CEO while Mr. Agadi remains acting as interim global CEO, a Crawford spokeswoman said.
