Bolls Joins SLTX as Director of Finance

The Surplus Lines Stamping Office of Texas (SLTX) is pleased to announce the appointment of Mr. Kyle Bolls as Director of Finance effective March 21, 2016.

For the past several years, Kyle has worked in financial regulation for the Texas Department of Insurance (TDI), recently serving as the Registrations Auditor for Company Licensing & Registration, wherein he was responsible for non-admitted markets, including surplus lines, solvency issues and financial reporting of insurer operations and troubled companies. He is also familiar with accredited/trusteed reinsurers, risk retention groups, and purchasing groups. Serving as the department’s team lead over Texas captives, Kyle managed captive application and financial requirements to include reviews of feasibility and actuarial studies, as required under statute.

Prior to joining TDI, Kyle was a financial advisor with Edward Jones Investments. He holds a Bachelor of Business in Finance and graduated Summa Cum Laude from Texas State University. He has extensive experience in software applications, financial advisement, NAIC data and analysis reporting, including dashboard development.

“As the organization begins to stratify its presence and priorities, it is paramount that new talent possess an insurance and financial skillset, while difficult to find, that is specific to the excess & surplus lines, specialty markets in Texas. Kyle’s experience is in line with the needs of this organization and will no doubt be a strong value point for industry stakeholders,” said Executive Director Norma Carabajal Essary.
