Caldwell NJ — Dear Members and Friends:

Thank you for your ongoing support of the SIFM by renewing your membership and attending our conferences and events. This year, we have a slate of exciting conferences and events planned, and we can’t wait to welcome you!

Our March Conference was a great success with over 117 registered attendees. It kicked off with a Fireside Chat featuring Vince Tizzio, President and CEO of AXIS Capital, and Lucy Lillycrop, Partner with PwC. This was followed by four very interesting panels and perspectives around People and Workforce Challenges facing the insurance industry.
