‘Positive’ talks held between CII, Airmic and IRM

Sandy Scott, Chartered Insurance Institute

The new title of chartered risk manager is being developed by the CII after positive talks with Airmic and the IRM.

The organisation which already awards chartered status to insurers and brokers said that there was a swell of opinion across the risk management sector for a recognisable standard for the emerging profession.

To win the right to award the new professional status, CII has to demonstrate to the UK Privy Council that it has robust standards and process and is an appropriate awarding body, in a long process that could take about two years.
