President's Message

President’s Message

Welcome to the Insurance Institute of Bedford and Milton Keynes, a small but vibrant local institute which has been established for 102 years.

I am delighted to serve as your President again for the 2025-26 term. My first tour of duty as President was in 1990-91 and the insurance and financial services landscape has certainly changed significantly over the interim years. What has not changed is the Chartered Insurance Institute’s focus on being a first class professional membership body, setting industry standards, encouraging professionals to gain respected qualifications and to continue to grow their skills to meet the challenges and customer needs of the twenty first century.

I offer huge thanks to our outgoing President, Suzzie Aidoo, for her leadership and dedication over the last year. I am delighted to welcome one of our most talented young professionals and a multiple award winner, Emma Edgeley, as the new Deputy President. She has already proved her value to Council and our members by her outstanding contribution as Education Secretary leading our CPD programme, the most challenging and impactful role in any local institute.
