Deadline for the 2011 Reinsurance Power Broker&reg Extended

To nominate someone for the 2011 Reinsurance Power Broker® Awards, or to put yourself in the running, please download the application form here.

Each year, Risk & Insurance? solicits nominations internationally for reinsurance intermediaries deserving of special recognition.

The nominations come from brokerage firms, individual brokers themselves, colleagues, and underwriters and other executives at primary carriers and reinsurers.

Every nomination form lists references who've worked with brokers, and our writers then call the references to discuss whom they believe is most deserving. Brokers are judged mainly on customer service, depth of industry knowledge and what they've done for clients in the past 12 months.

The goal of the Power Broker? competition is to ascertain some of the best brokers for a particular type of reinsurance based on their performance during the past year. The critical factor in that judgment is how well, in the eyes of the client, the intermediary solved a difficult problem with an innovative and exceptional solution.

More information on applying and nominating can be found on the 2011 Reinsurance Power Broker? Application.

The deadline to apply has been extended to Friday, May 20.
