IAG chief executive Craig Olsen is taking over from Paul Smeaton as president of the Insurance Council.
Smeaton has returned to Australia to take a senior role with Suncorp.
“I want to acknowledge Paul’s valuable contribution to ICNZ over the past five years including as Vice-President for two years, and most recently as President,” council vice-president Craig Olsen said.
“I look forward to continuing to work with ICNZ and our members to advance the vital role that the general insurance sector has in protecting New Zealanders in their everyday lives and businesses.”
