Fuedi Celebrates 40 Years And A New President

FUEDI, the European Federation of Loss Adjusting Experts, celebrated its 40th Anniversary at its annual General Assembly in Vienna on Friday, 16th May, 2008.

Originally established by senior Loss Adjusting Experts from Belgium, France, Germany and Italy it now represents Loss Adjusting Member Associations from thirteen EU countries as well as five observer countries.

Kieran Rigby, representing the UK and the Irish Republic, was appointed President of FUEDI for 2008/9 and will pursue its ongoing objectives of full representation within the European Community as well as its continuing educational programme, the latter being supported by its involvement in the
EU’s Leonardo da Vinci Lifelong Learning project. Kieran succeeds Thomas Kabler, President of the Austrian Association, AFILA.

Next month will see FUEDI’s presentation to EIOPC, the European Insurance and Occupational Pensions Committee representing the twenty seven Member States and the three Accession countries, in Brussels, to highlight FUEDI’s role within the European insurance market.
