The Board of the Insurance and Reinsurance Legacy Association (“IRLA”) are delighted to announce that Leslie-Ann Giovnilli was recognised with its Services to Legacy Award at its Gala Dinner at Congress in Brighton yesterday. Ms Giovnilli received a standing ovation from all 280 diners present.
In presenting the award Paul Corver noted that this was in part recognition of her tireless work during lockdown to keep the association communicating with its membership and maintaining contracts and engagement to keep events such as the annual congress viable. There were several humorous remarks made by both market practitioners and Ms Giovnilli, all with a more than passing allusion to her 46 years in the market.
