An award has been launched to recognise the achievements of young insurance brokers in the UK.
The award, sponsored by the Sheikh Abdullah Foundation, is worth £2,500. Judges are looking for a "rising star" who has made an outstanding contribution to the benefit of their company.
Any broker under the age of 30 on 31 May 2003, and whose company is a member of Biba, can apply.
Richard Sheikh, founder of the Sheikh Abdullah Foundation, said: "Seeing young people make specific achievements in broking is something that is close to my heart."
Sheikh, who is chief executive of Camberford Law, added: "That is why I have personally launched this award and I aim to see it gain momentum and profile year after year."
