Australian insurance and reinsurance professionals have been invited to apply for a scholarship that will take them to London to attend a highly regarded reinsurance seminar.

Organised by Aon Re Australia with the Australian and New Zealand Institute of Insurance and Finance (ANZIIF), the scholarship will take the winner to the UK in September to attend the Aon Re Global Clients Reinsurance Seminar.

ANZIIF says the scholarship recipient will gain “an invaluable understanding of the principles and practice of arranging reinsurance on a global scale and ultimately return this knowledge to benefit the entire region”.

The scholarship is open to Australian and New Zealand insurance professionals with at least two years’ experience in insurance or reinsurance.
