Board and Management Committees

Insurance Ireland is run by a secretariat team under the direction of a Board.

Members of the Board are made up of representatives of each of the membership sections, together with an external Board member selected by the Board itself. In addition to the Board there are Councils which include the General Council, Life Council, International Council, Reinsurance and Captive Council and Health Council.

Each year a President is appointed at the AGM and the Presidency alternates between life and non-life member companies. In addition, a wide range of committees and working groups meet throughout the year, dealing with specialist areas and membership comprises representatives of member companies.

The committees can be industry wide or focus on a specific product and the working groups tend focus on a specific issue to support Insurance Ireland in the technical detail of the lobbying strategy. These are as follows:
