There was plenty of razzle and dazzle as the who’s who of Australia’s insurance industry came out in style to attend ANZIIF’s 19th Australian Insurance Industry Awards at the Star Hotel in Sydney last week.

MC for the evening, Narelda Jacobs, a Whadjuk Noongar journalist and presenter, kept proceedings moving quickly, engaging an audience of around 800 people.

The night of celebration began with the launch of ANZIIF’s latest industry initiative, a Claims Handling Framework which sets minimum professional standards given the recent implementation of licensing requirements for claims handling.

Win-Li Toh, a principal and director of Taylor Fry and head of its insurance business, was chosen as the 2023 Insurance Leader of the Year.

The judges described Toh as an articulate, proactive leader, a creative thinker, and praised her wider community and media work as an advocate for insurance. They noted that through her actuarial career of more than 25 years, predominantly in general insurance, she had applied an international mindset to problem-solving.
