The Irish Insurance Federation (IIF) has called for the abolition of the tax on non-life premiums.

In its 2003 pre-budget report the Federation called for a raft of new industry measures, notably the abolition of the 2% stamp duty on non-life premiums.

The submission also proposed an option for insurers to estimate preliminary tax liability by reference to the previous year.

The alternative offers an extension of the period of adjustment for preliminary tax by reason of chargeable gains arising, after first payment.

The IIF also called for the simplification of the Irish pensions regime.

The 2025 Insurance Times Awards took place on the evening of Wednesday 3rd December in the iconic Great Room of London’s Grosvenor House.

Hosted by comedian and actor Tom Allen, 34 Gold, 23 Silver and 22 Bronze awards were handed out across an amazing 34 categories recognising brilliance and innovation right across the breadth of UK general insurance.
Many congratulations to all the worthy winners and as always, huge thanks to our sponsors for their support and our judges for their expertise.
