It is hard to believe it has been 30 years since the NIBA started. We believe the NIBA has been a vital resource and mouthpiece for the IB community which had no voice prior to the establishment of the NIBA.
The NIBA’s hard work, dedication and selfless approach in promoting the welfare of the IB community is something the industry and brokers in particular greatly appreciate.
So thank you and the team at NIBA and congratulations on your remarkable 30th anniversary!!!
