Adams is supported by: Gilbert Porter, Vice President; Simone Goodluck, Secretary; Eugenia Carter, Treasurer; Michele Mortheley, Librarian; Yvonne Williams, Public Relations Officer; Laureene Kirby, Education Officer, and Victor Peters, Honorary Member – Life Underwriters Association of St. Vincent and the Grenadines.

While expressing his gratitude to the electorate, Adams stated that he anticipated a challenging year.

At the top of his agenda is the inclusion of life insurance industry in all aspects of the Institute’s work. He noted that the agenda previously had been geared toward general insurance at the exclusion of life insurance. He said that he will be working closely with the Life Underwriters Association of SVG to redress this error.

He hopes also to work closely with the Insurance Association of SVG in addressing the education of the public on insurance matters. One of the Institute’s objectives is to promote, encourage and organise training and education in all aspects of insurance at all levels.
