Michael Dunn, a former executive with MassMutual Financial Group, will join Ascensus as president of the company’s enterprise solutions business, Ascensus announced in a new release Aug. 20.
Dunn succeeds Kurt Laning, who joined Ascensus through the company’s merger with Newport in 2022 and retired earlier this year.
Dunn will report to President Nick Good and join the company’s operating committee executive team. He begins his new position Sept. 4.
Dunn was previously head of institutional insurance at MassMutual Financial Group, serving in a number of product, sales and executive leadership roles over a nearly 20-year career. MassMutual did not respond to an email regarding whether it has found a replacement for Dunn.
“Mike Dunn is a highly experienced and respected leader in our industry and the ideal person to lead our enterprise solutions business into the future,” Good said in the news release.
Ascensus' enterprise solutions business is a provider of nonqualified retirement plan administration services as well as corporate- and bank-owned life insurance consulting and administration, and fiduciary and total rewards consulting services.
Ascensus has more than $818 billion in assets under administration and employs more than 5,700 people.
