Standard & Poor's has hired John Iten as director in its insurance rating group. The position is a newly created one. He joins from Deutsche Asset Management (formerly called Zurich Scudder Investments). Iten reports to Robert Partridge, managing director and head of S&P's insurance group. Iten says at Scudder he was senior insurance strategist in charge of the core fixed-income portfolio strategy for third-party insurance accounts. He reported to Ray Helfer, managing director in charge of the insurance group. Calls to Helfer seeking comment on whether Iten's slot has been filled were not returned by press time last Thursday.
