“Scot’s promotion to CFO reflects his deep financial expertise and his forward-thinking leadership,” said Melissa Burt DeVriese, President of Security First Insurance. “He has been instrumental in modernizing our financial operations, and we are confident that his leadership will continue to guide our organization with clarity and purpose as we adapt to Florida’s dynamic insurance landscape.”

Lloyd Stofko – Chief Reinsurance Officer

With over 30 years of experience in the reinsurance and insurance industry, Lloyd Stofko has played a critical role in shaping Security First’s risk strategy since joining the company in 2020 as Vice President of Ceded Reinsurance. Prior to that, he spent 25 years at Guy Carpenter as a trusted reinsurance broker, advising Florida-based carriers on catastrophe risk and reinsurance structuring. Lloyd began his career with IBM, teaching PC business applications, and holds a degree in mathematics and computer science from Binghamton University.

“Lloyd’s extensive knowledge of Florida’s reinsurance market and his proven leadership make him the ideal choice for CRO,” said Locke Burt, CEO of Security First Insurance. “He’s helped us strengthen our reinsurance strategy in a tough market, and his insight will continue to be a key asset as we work to protect our policyholders from risk.”

Financial Leadership That Strengthens Protection for Florida Families

Together, the Chief Financial Officer (CFO) and Chief Reinsurance Officer (CRO) roles form the financial backbone of Security First Insurance.
