We are proud to announce a milestone achievement for the counter-fraud community in the UK – IFIG has been officially recognised as the UK Chapter of the International Association of Special Investigation Units (IASIU).
This recognition marks an important step forward in strengthening international collaboration, knowledge-sharing, and professional development across the fight against insurance fraud.
What this means for our members
As the newest official chapter of IASIU, IFIG members will now benefit from closer ties to a global community of fraud investigators, insurers, and industry specialists. This status enhances our ability to:
- Share intelligence and best practice across international networks
- Access IASIU training, resources, and events
- Provide greater opportunities for professional recognition and development
- Strengthen the voice of the UK’s counter-fraud community on a global stage
Leading from the front
This achievement is the result of significant dedication and leadership. We want to give special recognition to our Chair, Ami North, whose determination and vision have brought to life what many have tried – and struggled – to achieve before. Ami’s leadership from the top has been instrumental in turning this ambition into reality.
Mike Brown also comments “Thrilled to be part of IASIU, a significant step forward working in collaboration with IASIU, who’s committee has worked tirelessly with ours over the past 2 years. Well done team!”
What’s next?
This landmark moment comes at an exciting time for IFIG. We will officially celebrate this achievement at the upcoming IFIG AGM & Networking Event on 1st October, with an agenda packed full of expert speakers, case studies, and collaboration opportunities. The AGM will also feature IASIU on the programme, bringing together the UK and global perspectives.
And, of course, we’ll be rounding off the day with our ever-popular IFIG Curry Night 🍛 – a chance to relax and network with colleagues and friends.
Looking ahead
Becoming the UK Chapter of IASIU cements IFIG’s position at the heart of the fight against insurance fraud. It’s a recognition of the strength of our community, the value of our work, and the determination to push forward as leaders in fraud prevention.
We look forward to building on this exciting new chapter — together.
