Mutual & Federal honours top Gauteng brokers

26 October 2013 Mutual & Federal

Mutual & Federal, a member of the Old Mutual Group, has honoured its top performing brokers in Gauteng. The short-term insurer held a special broker awards ceremony today as part of its annual broker engagement forums.

 

"These awards have long been overdue," says Louw Conradie, Mutual & Federal Head for Broker Distribution. "As a broker driven business, we believe that it's important to recognize the role played by brokers," he continues.

Only brokers who have made a significant contribution to

Mutual & Federal over the past 12 months, and those who have maintained a profitable portfolio over a three year period were considered for the awards. The candidates were then judged and scored according to set criteria.
