BRANCHVILLE, N.J. - Selective Insurance Group, Inc. (NASDAQ:SIGI), a property and casualty insurer with a market capitalization of $4.8 billion and a "GOOD" financial health rating according to InvestingPro, announced Wednesday that board member Wole Coaxum has resigned effective immediately to concentrate on his professional responsibilities elsewhere.
Coaxum, who served on Selective’s board for five years, is leaving to focus on Mobility Capital Finance Inc., a company he founded.

Marchioni, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer of Selective, acknowledged Coaxum’s contributions, noting that he "brought us a unique perspective, drawing on his experiences as an executive leader with some of the world’s largest insurance and finance companies and as an entrepreneur."
