| Belonging at LIIBA: Key Updates From Our Latest Webinar – Liiba Belonging at LIIBA Webinar-20260420_120053-Meeting Recording | Videos & Movies on Vimeo |
Context
The LIIBA has published key updates from its latest webinar “Belonging at LIIBA”. The LIIBA brought together members and partners to share practical insights on culture, inclusion and future talent across the London market.
Key points to note and next actions
The key issues highlighted in the article are:
- Building a more inclusive market – LIIBA continues to focus on supporting equity, inclusion and social mobility, while helping firms respond to growing regulatory expectations around culture and conduct.
- Opening doors through social mobility to remove barriers and build long term talent pipelines by expanding initiatives that help people access careers in insurance (supporting students from disadvantaged backgrounds, connecting senior leaders with school headteachers, and helping members engage with schools in their local communities)
- ‘Culture, Data and Regulation’ – with new regulatory expectations on the horizon, understanding workplace culture is more important than ever. Through its partnership with Inclusio, the LIIBA ran a proof of concept across eight broker firms. The key message is that culture can be measured, and data can drive better decisions. An industry impact report will be released soon.
- Turning insight into action by supporting firms with practical tools, including Mental Health Champion training and new approaches to neurodiversity.
- Investing in future talent by launching a new initiative focused on T Levels, offering early access to emerging talent, structured industry placements at no cost to employers, and a new route into the sector beyond traditional graduate pathways.
The LIIBA is also inviting members, especially SMEs, to take part in this year’s Dive In Festival, which may be the final edition in its current format. ‘Belonging at LIIBA’ continues to grow, with a clear focus on supporting firms of all sizes, turning insight into action, and creating a more inclusive, high performing market.
