Aperçu

Jared Wilner is a partner in Mayer Brown's New York office and a member of the Insurance group. He focuses his practice on advising domestic, foreign and alien insurers, reinsurers, insurance intermediaries and other insurance industry participants on a spectrum of insurance regulatory and transactional matters. These matters include mergers and acquisitions, joint ventures, investments, various distribution, services and other commercial contracts, reinsurance, insurtech, insurance product development, corporate governance, regulatory compliance and regulatory enforcement actions.

Jared began his career at the New York State Department of Financial Services (NYDFS), where he helped shape the policy response to various issues resulting from the 2008 financial crisis. In addition, he worked on high-leverage policy matters emanating from both the life and property and casualty bureaus, including several market conduct exams and regulatory reform initiatives.

Following his work at the NYDFS, Jared served as director and corporate counsel to Prudential Insurance’s life and annuities business units, advising on the distribution and administration of insurance products, reinsurance, company licensing and domestication and regulatory advocacy relating to market conduct exams and new regulation. He also gained exposure to many novel legal issues resulting from the transformational effects of technology and data on insurance company product design, distribution and administration.
