It’s 10 years since Insurance News magazine was launched, and this month’s special anniversary edition looks back over the big industry issues and events we’ve covered over that time. You’ll be surprised how long some of those issues have dragged on.

That first edition in October 2009 also looked at the life and times of insurance professionals through the eyes of 10 Gen X managers battling long working hours and the needs of family life. Ten years later we’ve interviewed them again, asking the same questions, with different answers.

We’ve also delved into the lives of six Gen Y professionals making their mark on the industry. Their approach, their ambitions and their views on work are a revelation.

Apart from celebrating our 10-year milestone, we also have plenty of industry news and features in this month’s special edition. They include a look at Suncorp’s reshaped market approach, why accident & health insurers are in the right place at the right time, how insurance is playing a pivotal role in eliminating workplace sexual harassment, and an expert’s view on the economy’s chilly outlook.

The insurance industry’s favourite magazine will be mailed out to subscribers this week, and will become available online through the insuranceNEWS.com.au website shortly after.
