Mr. D’Orazio said “We are proud to again sponsor the BFIS Bermuda programme, and to host the programme’s students at Allied World’s global offices in support of work‐shadowing. Each year, BFIS engages a group of bright, ambitious undergraduates as part of their programme, from which we’ve hired several talented men and women to work at Allied World full‐time following graduation.
“The BFIS Bermuda internship is a wonderful opportunity for students interested in the insurance industry, and we are committed to educating young people about the global marketplace and supporting their professional development. We look forward to our sponsorship of next year’s programme.”
