Given the resignation of one of the members of the Insurance and Reinsurance Stakeholder Group representing cooperative and mutual insurers or reinsurers effective as of 1st February 2013, EIOPA is now calling for expression of interest from potential stakeholders in this category.

On the basis of the statutory rules and requirements of the Regulation, the Insurance and Reinsurance Stakeholder Group has been set up to help facilitate consultation with stakeholders in areas relevant to the tasks of the Authority.

Members of the Insurance and Reinsurance Stakeholder Group, 30 in total, are individuals appointed to represent in balanced proportions insurance and reinsurance undertakings and insurance intermediaries operating in the Union, and their employees' representatives, as well as consumers, users of insurance and reinsurance services, representatives of SMEs and representatives of relevant professional associations. At least five of its members shall be independent top-ranking academics. Ten of its members shall represent insurance undertakings, reinsurance undertakings or insurance intermediaries, three of whom shall represent cooperative and mutual insurers or reinsurers.

This call for expression of interest regards one position of a member (representative of cooperative and mutual insurers or reinsurers) in the EIOPA Insurance and Reinsurance Stakeholder Group and is open to suitable candidates from any part of the EU. As this is a replacement, the mandate will expire at the same date as the one of the entire Insurance and Reinsurance Stakeholder Group (i.e. end August 2013).

Applications must be submitted by 21.03.2013.
