ABI Future Leaders

Award-winning Executive Development Programme 

  • A year-long programme that equips you with the skills, knowledge and expertise you need to lead an insurance and long-term savings firm.
  • Provides exposure to the impact of regulators, policymakers and existing CEOs.
  • Created to complement and add to the development pathways for the industry leaders of tomorrow.

The ABI FL programme is one of the most valuable courses I have taken throughout my twenty-year career in the insurance industry.

The content of every module was relevant and pertinent to any future leader working in the finance sector, and the panel discussions were especially valuable in that they gave us access to a number of prolific leaders (CEOs and CROs) from some of the largest organisations in our industry.
