Comments on: Premier Burt Leads Bermuda Delegation To RIMS https://bernews.com/2022/04/premier-burt-leads-bermuda-delegation-rims/ Bermuda's #1 source for 24/7 breaking news, photos & videos Thu, 23 Apr 2026 12:54:05 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.7.5 By: just a thought https://bernews.com/2022/04/premier-burt-leads-bermuda-delegation-rims/#comment-5795778 Wed, 13 Apr 2022 18:09:48 +0000 https://bernews.com/?p=1142480#comment-5795778 This is very bizarre. Bermuda is sending five representatives to RIMS (Premier Burt, Bermuda Business Development Agency, Bermuda Monetary Authority, Association of Bermuda Insurers and Reinsurers (ABIR), Bermuda Business Development Agency)? I don’t believe even the largest insurers send that many delegates to RIMS.

business class airfare x 5 persons – $20,000

hotel rooms – 4 delegates x $600/night x 4 nights and incidentals – $15,000

hotel suite and incidentals fit for a Premier of 65,000 people (there are more than 700 towns and cities in the US with a population over 50,000) – 4 nights x $1500/night, plus incidentals – $25,000

We should see a bill for roughly $60,000. I’ll bet they spend twice that.

What can Burt and Hayward add to this conference? Hopelessly out of their depth, both of them.

Is there anyone attending RIMS that does not already know about Bermuda? How much revenue was generated from previous conferences? How much is this trip costing taxpayers?

- Premier Burt
- Minister of Economy and Labour, Jason P Hayward
- representatives of the Bermuda Business Development Agency, Bermuda Monetary Authority [BMA], Bermuda Business Development Agency [BDA]

Over $150,000 at least.
