►      The research programme

The PROGRES name stands for Research PROGramme on REgulation, Supervision and legal issues in insurance. It focuses on questions related to regulation, supervision and international co-operation of insurance and financial services as well as other legal issues of importance. The research programme manages The Geneva Association’s co-operation with the supervisory authorities around the world and in particular with the International Association of Insurance Supervisors (IAIS).

►     Recent PROGRES international seminars

Since 1983 they provide an annual forum and focal point for up to 60 specialist inter-disciplinary participants – private-sector practitioners and experts from representative organisations, academics, officials from governments and intergovernmental organisations – to discuss and debate in an informal way.
