With so many changes and challenges to consider this year, why not join your local peers at one of our Regional Tour presentations and/or Knowledge Forums? Last year was highly informative and we intend for this year to be even better.

We are delighted that our facility provider, Premium Credit Limited is again sponsoring the series where you can catch up with CEO Graeme Trudgill, Regulation Director David Sparkes and your own Regional Manager plus some special guests at a venue in your region.

The events are FREE of charge, and will qualify for CII CPD points and lunch is provided.

This presentation takes place ahead of the Regional Knowledge Forum where you can meet some of our schemes and facility providers and also hear from a range of industry speakers selected to help you learn and develop. There will also be plenty of time to network and exchange views.

If you are not a BIBA member but wish to attend the Knowledge Forum please contact Anna or Ruth on [email protected] the fee for non-members is £40.00 +VAT.

* Event filming and photography may take place throughout the event which BIBA may use for future publicity and marketing.
** A fee of £10.00 may be applicable for late cancellation or non-attendance of this event to cover catering costs.

**UPDATE** FCA senior team join BIBA’s 2024 Tour of the Regions

I am delighted to confirm that the Financial Conduct Authority has committed to attending our UK -wide events on our annual Tour of the Regions this year, which starts in the Anglia Region on 4 September. By being there, the FCA’s insurance team will have the opportunity to explain their work directly to BIBA broker members and hear their feedback. This is a rare opportunity for you to meet and discuss insurance broking issues directly with the regulator’s senior insurance team.

I feel that it is really important for the regulator to have a good understanding of the operations of regional broker businesses and that, in turn, those regional brokers know what is expected of them. I am pleased that the FCA team will be able to meet members and have highly constructive discussions across the UK this autumn.

I have spoken to Matt Brewis, Director, Insurance at the FCA and I know he is delighted to be attending and respects the important role that insurance brokers perform for customers and the UK economy. He, and the FCA team, will also value the opportunity to discuss regulatory compliance and broaden mutual understanding.

These BIBA events have been running for over 10 years, providing members with an accessible means of discussing what matters to them with the senior BIBA team. Last year the introduction of guest speakers was highly popular with members, and we are delighted that the FCA team has committed to join us along with Flood Re.
