Our Commissions and committees

The Federation provides a forum for consultation and analysis of financial, legal, and technical challenges for insurance companies. These discussions take place within working commissions and committees. Led by the teams at France Assureurs, they bring together the Federation’s members and address both current and future key challenges of the sector.

Committee on Professional Conduct

Chair: Laurent LEVENEUR, Professor at the university Panthéon-Assas

The Committee on Professional Conduct, chaired by an independent figure, reviews any ethical commitment proposal that the sector wishes to adopt.

Once adopted by the France Assureurs’ governing bodies, the committee ensures compliance with these commitments within the insurance sector.

Sustainable Development Commission

Chair: François GARREAU, Head of CSR Mission to the Executive Committee, Generali France

As insurers’ core mission is to assess, anticipate, and manage long-term risks, they are particularly engaged with sustainable development in its three dimensions: economic, social, and environmental.

The Sustainable Development Commission informs members about industry priorities that directly or indirectly impact insurers’ CSR policies.

It organises and contributes to initiatives through meetings and public statements on current issues, particularly climate change adaptation.

It also develops tools, studies, and works (charters, indicators, guides, risk mapping) to promote, improve, or harmonise CSR practices across the sector.
