The D&O Diary was on assignment in Florida last week, with stops in both Orlando and Miami. It is always a pleasure to be in Florida, even though this time the Orlando leg of the trip was unusually cold.

The primary purpose of the Orlando visit was to attend the annual Professional Liability Underwriting Society (PLUS) Conference. As always, the Conference was well-organized and well-attended. It was a pleasure to see so many old friends and to make new friends as well. It was gratifying to learn how many of the new members of our industry follow The D&O Diary. It was also my honor to be able to participate as a panelist for one of the sessions, as reflected in the picture below. My congratulations to the PLUS staff for another excellent event.Continue Reading Orlando and Miami: PLUS Conference and LatAm Underwriters’ Meeting

Times Square

This week I was in New York for the 2025 PLUS D&O Symposium, along with a thousand or so other professionals from around the D&O insurance community. The Symposium took place at the Marriott Marquis hotel in Times Square, the bright, beating heart of NYC. No matter how many times you visit, there is still something special about being in New York. The conference was great as well, a great chance to catch up on the latest news and developments, to meet with my many friends in the industry, and to make some new friends, as well.Continue Reading PLUS D&O Symposium 2025

This past week, The D&O Diary was on assignment in Chicago to attend the 2024 PLUS Conference. Hard to believe, but this year’s version was the 37th installment in the annual series. It was as well-attended and well-organized as always. The event was held at the Sheraton Grand Hotel Riverwalk, right on the Chicago River. Chicago is one of my favorite places to visit and it was great to be back again. It was also great to see so many old friends and to make some new friends as well, as reflected in the pictures below.

As reflected in my recent post, last week I attended the PLUS D&O Symposium in New York. The sessions were great, but based on some comments of various panelists, there are some items for follow-up – for example, references that panelists made that need to be checked out, items that panelists suggested we should pursue, and so on. I have run down these various items, and I link to them below. I emphasize that these items will be of interest even if you didn’t attend the Symposium. I have also included below several other items from around the Internet as well.Continue Reading PLUS D&O Symposium Follow-Up and Other Notes

The D&O Diary’s tour through the Asia Pacific region continued this week with a stop in the island city-state of Singapore, which is a bustling metropolis and a burgeoning insurance center.

The Marriott Marquis San Diego

It was my pleasure last week to attend the annual PLUS Conference, this year held in San Diego. It was great to be back at a live PLUS event again and to see so many colleagues from around the industry. As always, the PLUS staff did an amazing job organizing the event, and the turnout was great as well. It was also great to be back in San Diego. It was a little bit cool and it rained on Tuesday but despite that San Diego was still beautiful. It was great to see many old friends and to make new friends as well.
