Michael Fisher, BFIS chairman, said “The continuing support from such a well-recognized industry leader, the Arch Group, is very important to BFIS and assists us in maintaining the level of our scholarship awards, as well as supporting our other educational programmes.”

Starting in the high-schools they are opening the eyes of students to the possibilities of a career in insurance, and are there to support students through either scholarship funding, mentoring, providing network opportunities and even assistance with finding employment.” We are delighted to continue to support BFIS in these endeavours.”
