The London and International Insurance Brokers’ Association has launched its new Emerging Claims Committee. It said the initiative was aimed at providing support to people working in the London insurance market who were in the early stages of a career in claims. The committee will seek to promote claims as a career, engage with the market on key claims issues and promote education and development in the sector.

Christopher Croft, chief executive of LIIBA, said: “The London market thrives on talent, and that talent must be nurtured from the start. The Emerging Claims Committee reflects our commitment to giving a voice to those at the beginning of their claims careers and ensuring their perspectives are included in market discussions.

“By building a diverse, representative and engaged community, we’re strengthening not only the claims function but the future of the London insurance market as a whole.”
