David Wyner has departed the board of the National Insurance Brokers Association (NIBA), a post he held since 2008.

Mr Wyner, who represented PSC on the board, left the company recently.

During a meeting held via video conference, NIBA’s board of directors noted his significant contribution as a director, convention committee chair and president.

“David has been an incredible contributor to NIBA and broking in general,” President Eric Harris said. “David always demonstrated his passion for broking. His input and insight will be missed.”

Mr Wyner also acted as the Australian representative on the World Federation of Insurance Intermediaries.

NIBA CEO Dallas Booth said he appreciates Mr Wyner’s work on the board, “and his service and commitment to NIBA and to insurance brokers more broadly”.

The directors also discussed issues and challenges arising out of the COVID-19 crisis and the challenges brokers are likely to face leading into the June renewal period.

The board will meet regularly in the coming months in order to monitor market developments and provide guidance to NIBA management and staff on how best to support members in these challenging times.
