Stakeholder session on the IAIS’ work on diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) in the insurance industry

On 9 February 2023, 13.00 – 14.00 CET, the IAIS will hold a virtual stakeholder session to give an overview of the IAIS’ work on diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) in the insurance sector and to receive input from stakeholders to inform the IAIS’ next projects on DEI.

The IAIS will give an overview of the DEI stocktake report (published in December 2022) and the IAIS’ planned next DEI projects:

• One will examine the link between DEI within an insurers’ institution and its governance, risk management and corporate culture.
• The other will examine how DEI considerations in insurers’ conduct of business, and in their supervision, may result in fairer treatment of consumers who are vulnerable, under-served or have different needs in comparison with a normative or majority consumer profile.

Stakeholders will be invited to raise ideas and feedback to help the IAIS take forward the two new projects on DEI in 2023. The session will be interactive and invite comments from participants. A small number of questions will be circulated in advance to registered participants.
