“IFNY is exceptional”
Since its inception in 1913, the Insurance Federation of New York, Inc. (IFNY) has earned broad-based distinction as one of New York’s insurance industry’s most widely respected organizations, communicating ideas among all sectors of the industry and bringing public and private interests together for the benefit of all.
IFNY has added an exciting new division to our group called the IFNY Emerging Leaders. This division is made up of a diverse group of young professionals from all facets of the insurance and reinsurance industries. Its mission is to engage and develop the next generation of young, talented professionals in the insurance and reinsurance industries by providing members with networking events, mentoring opportunities, educational programs and charitable events planned throughout the year.
Membership in this group provides access to all IFNY events. Finally, IFNY caps off its year with the Annual Luncheon in November, where IFNY honors individuals whose significant achievements have been important to our industry and to the civic good with the Free Enterprise Award and the Mary Lanning Public Service Award. The event encourages attendees to reconnect with old acquaintances and make new ones.
IFNY also proudly notes the success of the IFNY Interns summer program. Federation members have given generously of their time and finances to support this program that reaches into the community to afford highly motivated teens from challenging backgrounds an in-depth opportunity to learn about the insurance industry and to consider a career in insurance or one of its allied fields. The IFNY Interns of today will be tomorrow’s industry leaders.
IFNY continues to provide its diverse members with extensive networking and educational opportunities. We hope that you will take advantage of the opportunity to participate in upcoming programs by becoming a member of IFNY. We are convinced that you will appreciate the concrete benefits of membership as a business leader in the New York State insurance industry.
Events
IFNY’s annual calendar of events brings together the “best and brightest” in our field to ensure that industry intelligence is shared and that support for best practices in insurance business, law and regulation earns the understanding of leaders across the spectrum.
The Federation invites its members to attend the Annual Fall Cocktail Reception and our popular “Breakfast With…” programs, featuring distinguished leaders in the insurance industry and regulatory communities. IFNY also sponsors educational seminars in cooperation with the New York City Bar Association’s Committee on Insurance Law, as well as other organizations.
