Phil Latvis

Phil Latvis, executive director at the Vermont Department of Financial Regulation, has been appointed director of risk management services at the Vermont League of Cities and Towns, effective April 21.

In his new role, Latvis will direct all aspects of VLCT’s Property and Casualty Intermunicipal Fund, a government risk pool that provides property, casualty, liability and workers’ compensation insurance to more than 95% of the municipalities in Vermont. He will also oversee the organization's Employment Resource and Benefits Trust, a $4 million government risk pool that provides unemployment coverage for more than 200 municipalities in Vermont.

“Phil’s experience is going to ensure that VLCT’s government risk pool programs continue to provide Vermont municipalities with the best protection at the best cost,” said Executive Director Ted Brady. “I’m excited for him to help us ensure that PACIF and VERB meet our members’ modern needs, including addressing cyber liability and mitigating the increasing impacts of climate change.”
