OneAmerica Financial Partners, an insurance holding company, has announced the promotion of Vicki Yamasaki to the position of chief risk officer, effective July 1.

Yamasaki has served as OneAmerica’s vice president of strategic planning since 2004. Previously, Yamasaki served as a partner with PricewaterhouseCoopers in the Global Risk Management Practice where she served clients nationally.

Yamasaki will report to Chief Financial Officer Scott Davison and will assume leadership over OneAmerica’s current risk-management program that has been evaluated favorably by industry rating agencies. OneAmerica’s continued growth necessitated an evaluation of its approach to risk management with the goal of further strengthening disciplines and evolving practices to support its more complex business.

As chief risk officer, Yamasaki will chair OneAmerica’s Enterprise Risk Committee, coordinate enterprise risk management activities, develop improved risk reporting systems, and provide thought leadership in the area of risk management. Additionally, she will ensure that risks are appropriately measured, aggregated, and managed within the enterprise.
