BFIS Scholars Lunch With Mentoring Group
For the final Bermuda Foundation for Insurance Studies [BFIS] event of the summer, the BFIS Mentoring and Alumni Committees hosted the 26 current BFIS scholars to lunch on August 16.

“The current scholars are almost equally divided between attending universities in the USA [36%], Canada [36%] and the UK [28%], with 6 studying Insurance and Risk Management, 5 studying Accounting, 5 Business, 4 Actuarial Science or Math, 4 Economics, 1 Finance and I Law.
“Jonathan Allen, co‐chair of the Mentor Network Committee opened the lunch by highlighting the merits of having a mentor within the industry and thanked the professionals for participating and PwC for providing the venue.
“The next BFIS networking lunch will be held on December 29.”
