Top reasons to attend the Insurance Risk Management Forum

Streamline risk management strategizing – the Insurance Risk Management Forum is your one-stop shop for building a coverage plan that safeguards your bank against 2026’s biggest risks. In just four days, access leading experts, peer exchange opportunities, and meetings with insurance providers to build the most effective and cost-conscious coverage plan for your bank.

Optimize your protection portfolio in four days

Instead of compiling need-to-knows from multiple resources, get the full look at emerging risks, coverage changes and renewal strategies straight from leading insurance risk experts onsite.

Access your peer network

Engage in candid, validating conversations with peers who truly understand your challenges, share success stories, and build camaraderie with fellow insurance risk managers from across the country.

Meet with insurance providers face-to-face

Risk managers return year after year to meet with over 40 leading corporate insurance providers in person to explore solutions tailored to their bank’s risk needs and budget.

Build the next generation of risk management

What better way to ensure the continued success of your bank than to make sure your successors are up to task? Develop your Emerging Leaders onsite – contact us about a special rate for them just for ABA members.

“I consistently recommend this conference to other peers who do not regularly attend. I find the session topics relevant and insightful. There are also networking opportunities that allow me to meet with industry peers and carriers.” – Past attendee


How you’ll get it done

ABA’s unique relationships with industry leaders, state bankers association and key government figures ensures you’ll get the industry-shaping content necessary for optimal risk strategy.

Session formats include general sessions, interactive learning labs, expert panels and more. Solve for challenges in leading risk factors in cyber insurance, property insurance, D&O liability, third-party risk insurance, E&O insurance, and more.

Our program holds time just for you to schedule meetings with corporate insurance providers, so you can take advantage of all the IRM Forum has to offer and maximize your time onsite.

Benchmark your strategy against its potential and gain fresh in-the-field perspectives through critical conversations with peers, while enjoying bites and drinks in sunny Orlando. Check out our attendee profile to see who you can meet onsite.

From the IRM Forum advisory board

"In this environment firms are very cost-conscious, and the adage is we all have to do more with less. So that underscores the importance of being efficient, and just being a mindful steward of resources. In my view, I think the IRM Forum is the opportunity to connect with different counterparties, your peers, all under one umbrella. It's economically efficient, and you reap both tangible and intangible benefits.” – Bruce Plummer, Senior Vice President – Head of Insurance Services, Northern Trust Corporation

"Our jobs are so unique as insurance risk managers…so to have like-minded people for three days together with people that we need to do business with…it's been really useful to our company for as long as the company has been participating." – John Truxillo, Executive Director – Risk and Insurance Management, Wells Fargo

"Risk continues to change and evolve and how you structure your insurance program has to adapt and evolve in correlation with that. The Forum gives us an opportunity to talk about emerging risks and changes and how you build an insurance program that best supports risk that your company may face." – Lauren Crean, Managing Director, Head of Corporation Insurance, State Street Corporation

The ROI is clear

Meet us in Orlando in late January to master your risk strategy.
