CUNA Mutual said Davidson retired on June 2 after 40 years with the Madison, Wis., company.
Allied announced this week that Davidson was its new vice president of risk consulting in its bond division.
“Having Ann Davidson join the Allied family takes our Credit Union Bond Risk Consulting Unit to a whole new level,” Allied Solutions President Pete Hilger said in the announcement from the provider of insurance programs and other services to 4,000 financial institutions.
Her new employer said Davidson, a frequent speaker at credit union conferences, will use her consulting expertise along with educational presentations and seminars on fraud prevention and compliance topics to help credit unions manage risk and ensure their financial soundness.
