The FUEDI held its General Assembly and all member associations from across Europe were represented at this on-line event. The influence of loss adjusters and our member associations members was discussed in the fight against the economic implications of the Covid-19 pandemic.

Christope Fournial of the CEA – France was duly elected as President of the FUEDI. This is most fitting following Christope’s considerable input into FUEDI in representations to European bodies over several years. In addition Christophe has also served FUEDI by drafting and obtaining support for the renewed version of the governing FUEDI documents. During Christophe’s year the FUEDI will celebrate 50 years of existence and this celebration will take place in Paris, France in May 2022.
