Judd is a founder and current Vice Chairman of GUARD Insurance Group, the parent organization of a number of affiliates engaged in insurance activities. In this capacity, he is involved in strategic planning issues, the development of corporate policy related to investments and distribution, and the selection of the executive management team that administers daily operations.
Early in his career, Judd and his wife Susan formed, managed, and later sold a commercial property and casualty insurance agency called Shoval Associates. The creation of an independent insurance company to underwrite Workers’ Compensation coverage followed shortly thereafter. GUARD’s first policy was written in 1983. Now, the organization comprises four subsidiaries (AmGUARD, EastGUARD, NorGUARD, and WestGUARD), provides insurance to tens of thousands of businesses, and is licensed in 43 states plus the District of Columbia. In May of 2007, GUARD was acquired by Clal Insurance Enterprises Holdings, Ltd., of Tel Aviv, Israel. |
