The Bermuda Insurance Institute (BII) will be holding a series of learning luncheons throughout 2012 about the Island’s insurance industry.

The first of these events will take place on Tuesday, April 10 featuring Jeremy Cox, CEO of the Bermuda Monetary Authority, who will provide an update on the Island’s regulatory environment in a session entitled: “Regulation for the Long Haul”.

Also scheduled for later in the year, is a session led by Arch Capital Group president and CEO Constantine (Dinos) Iordanou, in his capacity as chairman of the Association of Bermuda Insurers and Reinsurers (ABIR).

“The BII has for over 40 years been the focal point for education and training as an examination centre, a place of study, and a place to network with other professionals in the industry,” said BII president John Wight. “We aim to support the professional development of the employees of our member companies, who represent the re/insurance and financial services sectors and we believe that these networking luncheons will help us to continue to achieve this.”

For further information or to be added to the BII’s e-mailing list, contact 295-1596. Tickets for the luncheons can be purchased on the BII’s website www.bii.bm up to four weeks before the event.
