Frank J. Scheckton, Jr., Divisional President, Fidelity / Crime to Retire from Great American Insurance Group

September 8, 2022 By Business Wire

CINCINNATI--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Frank J. Scheckton, Jr., Divisional President, Fidelity / Crime, will retire on September 16, after a distinguished career with Great American Insurance Group.



Mr. Scheckton has dedicated his insurance career to the specialty fidelity and crime business, where he is respected and recognized as an industry leader. He was the first to create a telephone fraud policy internationally which resulted in him testifying before the Federal Communications Commission on Telephone Fraud.

Mr. Scheckton joined the Company in 1995 and under his leadership, Great American’s Fidelity / Crime Division was the first to define cryptocurrency and include Bitcoin in a crime policy, and the first to offer a $100 million armored car facility in North America. In addition, the Division has become the largest monoline writer of crime insurance in North America and the largest crime writer of Native American risks. The Division also introduced fine art coverage in 2017.

“I am honored to have worked with Frank for many years. He is an innovative leader and his contributions to our company have been instrumental to the Fidelity / Crime Division’s outstanding track record of excellence. This business continues to be one of Great American’s most specialized operations,” said Bruce Smith, Senior Vice President. “We thank Frank for his many contributions and wish him all the best in his next life adventure.”

Stephanie M. Hoboth succeeds Mr. Scheckton as president of the Division. She joined Fidelity / Crime in 1997 and previously served as Divisional Senior Vice President.
