Ms. Fato brings more than three decades of legal, compliance, regulatory, and corporate governance leadership across the insurance and financial services industries.

She began her career at Davis Polk & Wardwell, where she spent 14 years, including five as a partner in the capital markets group.

Her appointment comes as Vantage enters its next chapter as part of Howard Hughes Holdings, which completed its acquisition of the company in June 2026. Ms. Fato succeeds Bobbi Anderson, who has stepped down from her role at Vantage.

"Lucy is a proven leader with a track record of guiding our industry's most respected companies through growth and transformation, and her judgment across complex legal and regulatory matters will be a tremendous asset to us," said Marc Grandisson, Executive Chairman of Vantage. "Her arrival strengthens our foundation as we position Vantage for long-term value creation."
