A committee under Vice President Michel Dennery is now putting the programme for the 2012 FERMA Seminar in place. The seminar will be the venue for the announcement of the results of the important FERMA risk management benchmarking survey, as it has been for the last 12 years.

At the same time, the content of the seminar is growing in breadth. The programme will have three streams: risk management in the European Union, enterprise risk management and from insurance to assurance, which fit with the three sections of the benchmarking survey.

As a risk managers’ event, the FERMA Seminar is an ideal opportunity for members to network. The Versailles Congress Centre, where the seminar will take place is within sight of the World Heritage Versailles palace and its extensive grounds. The programme will begin with lunch on Monday 22 October and conclude at 17.00 on Tuesday October 23. The national FERMA member AMRAE will host a French night on Monday.

More details will be available in future editions of the newsletter and on the FERMA website.

Registration will start in April and will be free for risk and insurance managers – make sure you book your seat!
