Profitable business growth - the crucial business issue - is the theme of an Insurance Times conference to be held on 15 September at the St David's Hotel, Cardiff.

Sponsored by the Welsh Development Agency (WDA), the conference brings together a range of leading representatives from the insurer, broking and insurance service industries. It will include WDA research on the key issues facing general insurance firms as they strive for profitability.

This dynamic event will appeal to those wanting advice and guidance on how to grow business and margin, rather than simply ensuring survival in the face of growing regulation.

There will also be sessions on technology and reputation and a panel discussion on the key challenges facing the industry until 2010.

More information on the event and on how you can participate in the research can be found at: www.instimes.co.uk/events/PBG .
