AM Best executives will be participating in the 2019 Emerging Leaders Conference, taking place Feb. 24-26, 2019, at the Confidante Hotel in Miami, FL.

Matthew C. Mosher, executive vice president and chief operating officer, and Andrea Keenan, senior managing director – industry relations, are participating in the event, which recognizes high-performing individuals and provides professional training to develop the next generation of insurance industry leaders. The conference is hosted by the Insurance Careers Movement, the American Property Casualty Insurers Association of America and AM Best, and is part of the industry’s efforts to support the development of new and talented insurance industry professionals.

Details of Mosher’s and Keenan’s appearances are as follows:


  • Mosher will join a panel discussion on Monday, Feb. 25, at 10:45 am (EST), titled, “How to Surge Innovation in Your Company and the Industry.” The session will focus on how innovation in the insurance industry has become critical as the market is rapidly changing, and how emerging leaders can help facilitate necessary initiatives.
