Alba, Italy (May 20, 2018) — This spring, members of the International Surety Alliance gathered to share their ideas and experiences while also gaining insight into industry issues from their peers. The 3-day event brought together various speakers (both live and via video) to discuss the surety industry, global economics, politics, technology, finance, and business management practices.
Alliance members, including America’s leading provider of surety bonds, Nielson, Hoover & Company, and its President, David Hoover, came together from around the world to take part in discussions focused on the impact of geopolitical developments on the surety world. The first day’s meetings were dedicated to conversations about international surety success stories experienced by each of the members in attendance. “No matter the distance between the SA members, many of our issues are the same. How we approach the issues may differ, yet we all can learn from one another. As a result, we become more valuable to our own businesses and our client’s needs,” said David Hoover. The second day’s morning session was kicked-off by keynote speaker, Sean McGroarty, the Global Head of Bonding from Euler Hermes headquartered in Paris, France, with the afternoon session continuing with more industry reviews, analysis and success stories. The day ended with a presentation from one of the Surety Alliance’s most important partners, Zurich Insurance. After the session’s ended, Hoover went on to say, “Working with a peer group of likeminded professional entrepreneur surety brokers from around the United States and the world provides an excellent platform to support surety programs for multinational businesses.”
The 3-day event concluded with a taste of Italy, as members attended a guided tour of “Museo del Vino di Barolo”, the prestigious Wine Museum located in the well-known historical town of Barolo. After lunch, members visited the “Antiche Cantine dei Marchesi di Barolo”, Ancient Cellars of the Marquis of Barolo. This was the perfect way to end the conference by sharing a little Italian culture, while at the same time, helping their economic development along the way.
