“The NIBA community is a powerful one that guides and advises Australians to better manage and understand their risks. I look forward to working with the Board, the members and key stakeholders as we build on our platform of representation, professionalism and community.\u201d<\/p>\n

He will join NIBA on 27 May, 2024.<\/p>\n
