A forum on insurance data standards will be held in Sydney next month.

The Association for Co-operative Operations Research and Development (ACORD) conference will consider how ACORD standards can benefit executives and analysts.

It will include a panel discussion with industry executives, a “tech talk” session and training in messaging protocols specific to Australia.

“We are looking forward to growing the event this year in both size and topics,” ACORD Director of Global Development Alan Stitzer said.

“Our program this year includes not only general insurance sessions, but also life insurance and reinsurance and large commercial.”

The second annual ACORD Forum Australia will be held at the Christie Conference Centre from November 13 to 15. Registration is available here.
