Dominic J. Frederico
President and Chief Executive Officer
Dominic Frederico has been a director of Assured Guaranty Ltd. since our 2004 initial public offering, and the President and Chief Executive Officer of Assured Guaranty Ltd. since December 2003.

Mr. Frederico is leading our strategic expansion into alternative asset management, with a goal of increasing asset management-related earnings and increasing our investment in alternative assets.
