José Manuel Fonseca was named Broker Leader of the Year by FERMA at its European Risk Management Awards in Brussels, Belgium, in November last year. The judging panel – comprising chairpeople from a number of national risk management associations – recognises personalities for their meaningful contributions to the sector. This is the first time a Portuguese citizen has been given the award which acknowledges the work undertaken to advance and introduce new dynamics to risk management. During the awards ceremony, Brian Duperreault, AIG chairman and ceo, was named Insurance Leader of the Year.
The European Risk Management Awards acknowledge the work of leading entrepreneurs and thought leaders within the European risk management community, rewarding excellence and innovation among the sector's main players: insurers, brokers and professional service providers.
