The association, formed in 1983, having as its members a unified group of property and casualty insurance agencies, brokers, domestic insurers and independent adjusting firms, aims to represent the local insurance community and businesses by lobbying for appropriate legislation, stimulating public awareness and further educating its members and the public of the benefits that may be derived from insurance.
Newly elected president Wayne Harty said there are many challenges to be met and pledged that he and his team will work diligently to tackle them in the best interest of the industry and the general public.
