COMMENT
04/03/07
The paid-up membership itself is nothing to write home about - hats off to all paid up members - hence a whole page has been dedicated to a cut-out membership application form which we are confident will be fully utilised.
By the end of February 2007 the total paid-up membership should be at least 99 percent of the entire insurance fraternity covering all the seven insurance companies, 33 insurance brokers, the insurance agents, adjusters etc.
The recruitment and awareness drive by the relevant sub-committees will be stepped up and a lot of awareness material informing you of the institute’s activities will be made available to ensure your full participation in the institute’s activities and in turn to a highly enriched Insurance Magazine.
And as for coverage of your company’s activities such as launches of new products, client’s educational seminars etc, please feel free to drop the editor a line.
