Neil Chadwick has been appointed chairman of the Manx Insurance Association (MIA).
He will hold the role for two years and takes over from Quilter International chief executive Peter Kenny, who assumed the role in 2019.
Chadwick is head of technical services for International Financial Group Limited (IFGL); which owns RL360, RL360 Services, Friends Provident International and Ardan International.
Commenting on his appointment, Chadwick said: “I’m looking forward to representing the insurance sector and working with the Isle of Man Government and other sectors to promote the Isle of Man as a leading financial services jurisdiction.”
He has been involved with the MIA for more than nine years, setting up and chairing the Technical and Policy Committee before taking on the role of deputy chairman.
During that time, he assisted the insurance sector with its approach to the introduction of Automatic Exchange of Information requirements and also the Isle of Man Conduct of Business rules.
The MIA represents authorised life assurance companies based in the Isle of Man. It seeks to promote professionalism and excellence within the insurance sector by providing a forum for discussion, working closely with the Isle of Man Government on matters affecting the industry, acting as a link with the local community and raising the industry’s profile.
