The NCRIB had through its Executive Secretary, Mr. Tope Adaramola expressed the need for better synergy between Insurance Brokers and the arbitrators’ body in order to shore up the image of the industry and enhance its public acceptability.

Adaramola who led the delegation of the NCRIB Secretariat to the Institute in Lagos noted that the policy direction of the Council’s present leadership  is to strive to collaborate with professional institutions that could assist the Council and Insurance Brokers generally to accelerate insurance awareness and obviate the image challenges of the industry, generally.
