Global insurance broker Aon has become the exclusive
sponsor of the inaugural International Accounting Bulletin (IAB)
Awards.
Aon, a global leader in the insurance broker market, provides
accounting firms, networks and associations access to the insurance
market, as well as technical expertise and advice.
As a sponsor, Aon
will receive exclusive awards branding and be heavily involved in
the cocktail reception, which is due to take place in London on 8
March 2012.
“Aon has been closely associated with the accountancy profession
and its professional liability needs around the globe for several
decades. In that time we have worked with many firms as their risks
have evolved,” said Keith Tracey, the managing director of Aon Risk
Solutions.
“As the market leader is providing such services, we are proud
to sponsor the first IAB awards recognising excellence in the
profession.”
International Accounting Bulletin editor Arvind Hickman said
Aon’s support of the IAB awards highlighted the company’s
commitment to serving the global accounting profession.
“Aon is the largest insurance broker in the world and has a
long-standing relationship with most of the firms that will be
taking part in the IAB awards,” Hickman said.
“I am delighted to welcome a company with such a strong legacy
of excellence in looking after the risk and insurance needs of
accounting firms. I believe Aon is a great fit for the IAB awards
and I look forward to working with them to make these industry
awards a success.”
