Fellow members, on behalf of The Insurance
Institute of Ireland, I am very pleased to
welcome you to our website.
As a long standing member of
the Institute through my years working in
this exciting and challenging industry, it
is a great honour for me as President of The
Insurance Institute of Ireland to represent
you, our members.
As you are all aware, the
Institute has made and continues to deliver
an invaluable contribution to the industry
most notably in the areas of education,
training and the maintenance of professional
standards,
I would encourage each and
every member to participate and engage at
all levels and avail of the services
provided by the Institute and the benefits
that your membership bestows.

The work which is detailed throughout
the website is to ensure the provision of quality
education programmes and the promotion of insurance
education through collaboration with other
professional bodies.
The Institute also responds to the
training and development needs of members while also
ensuring the maintenance of an overall superior
level of service. Additionally the Institute must
ensure the continuation of membership competence
compliance through the Professional Standards
Advisory Board General Insurance. (PSAB- GI)
A particular personal focus is
translating the vision and business objectives of
the Institute’s new strategic plan, ‘Your
Profession- Our Priority’. I look forward to
working with you to implement this progressive
strategy.
The setting and maintenance of the
highest ethical standards is key for the Institute.
The implementation of the Code of Conduct and Ethics
will provide invaluable networking, social and
professional development events which all benefit
the Institute and you the member.
Today, The Insurance Institute of
Ireland boasts a growing membership base which
currently stands at over 10,500 members. Faced with
a mixture of both challenging and vibrant economic
environments since its inception, the dedication of
all our members and stakeholders within our
industry, have collectively aided to the Institute’s
continuing success.
Now more than ever however, we must
continue to adapt and evolve with the current
economic conditions. It is imperative to provide
necessary individual services required for our
members, while also ensuring we meet the
requirements of the industry at large and its key
corporate stakeholders.
The provision of services and
responsibility for delivering on our objectives are
largely the responsibility of our dedicated CEO
Denis Hevey, the hard working team at Insurance
House, our Local Institute Presidents, National and
Local Councils and all others involved at the
Institute.
I look forward to meeting with as
many of you as possible over my term as President
and welcome any feedback and suggestions you may
have so we can continue to develop and improve our
service offering.
The success of our Institute which is
almost 125 years old is dependent on you, our
members. It is the responsibility of each and every
member to use the force of the Institute to its full
potential and to ensure that its influence and
contribution will remain a respected and strong
representative organisation in Ireland.
I look forward to your continued
support and participation.
Kind regards,
Adrienne O’Sullivan ACII DLS Chartered Insurer
President
The Insurance Institute of Ireland. |
