The Chartered Insurance Institute (CII) has hit its 2003 membership target of 68,000 individuals six weeks early than planned.
The CII currently has 68,209 members, against a total of 66, 432 on 31 December 2002.
CII marketing director Steve Wellard said the Institute is delighted, "regulation and the support we are giving members who need to be `fit for purpose' has obviously had an impact.
"But equally as important the CII has worked hard to improve its membership services."
