Gallagher Bassett has forged a two-year partnership with the Australasian Life Underwriting & Claims Association (ALUCA), a life insurance industry-member association that aims to educate and develop its more than 1,500 members across Australasia.
ALUCA holds more than 27 events annually, including educational seminars and networking functions in NSW, VIC, QLD, SA, and WA, to enhance the professional development of life insurance professionals and provide them with the opportunity to gain CPD points.
Shayne Milsom, GB’s executive director of life and disability products for Australia and New Zealand, said becoming ALUCA's silver sponsorship partner is a way for GB to show its dedication toward the development and education of life insurance professionals across Australasia.
‘‘The life industry is evolving and we are very clear that we need to be at the forefront of that change ongoing,” Milsom said. “Here at GB we endeavour to be our customers’ trusted business partner, and we are confident that with the team of experienced individuals we have, this approach will be an amazing success.”
GB's life and disability team commenced in early 2017 and currently has more than 50 years of combined life insurance experience.
As ALUCA's new silver partner, GB will attend the 2018 Biennial Conference and various ALUCA state seminars.
