CEOs, claims executives and their teams are signing on to attend the inaugural Mansfield Awards event in Sydney next month, when the winners will be announced.

Tickets to the event are now available at www.mansfieldawards.com.

The research process is now in full swing, and brokers and authorised representatives can still help determine the winners by completing LMI Group’s Claims Comparison survey before June 19. 

The Mansfield Awards recognise and promote excellence in claims management, and are expected to become an annual fixture on the insurance calendar.

The event at the Establishment Ballroom on July 13 is being promoted as a way to recognise and celebrate excellence in claims management.

The awards are sponsored this year by icare and Steadfast. They are being organised by insuranceNEWS.com.au and claims services specialists LMI Group, who conceived them as a way of recognising the importance of claims in the insurance process.

Independent industry data and broker feedback is being collated and weighted to find the winners in personal lines, SME property and casualty, corporate property and casualty, and specialty.

The overall gold Mansfield Award will go to the company that has performed best in such areas as speed of service, proactivity, accuracy and fairness.
