AALU & GAMA International Announce Partnership to Unify Life Insurance Distribution Organizations

PR Web

Reston, VA (PRWEB) March 27, 2017

AALU and GAMA International announced yesterday that the associations will partner on behalf of their members and clients to create alignment among the life insurance distribution community.

The statement was made by Bonnie Godsman, Chief Executive Officer of GAMA, and Marc Cadin, Chief Operating Officer of AALU, on the main stage at GAMA's LAMP (Leadership & Management Program) conference in Washington, DC.

"AALU's core strength in advocacy will be game-changing for our producers' ability to serve their clients in an uncertain marketplace," Godsman said. "The introduction of their legislative and regulatory expertise will be an incredible asset to GAMA members and their capacity to do business."

"GAMA has an esteemed history of developing the best in the distribution space," Cadin responded. "AALU's mission is to strengthen, grow, promote, and advocate for the life insurance community, and we are excited to work with GAMA members in that endeavor."

Godsman will also join AALU leaders on their 2017 Annual Meeting main platform at the end of April.

Prior to announcing this partnership, AALU and GAMA were closely aligned for many years. This week, AALU past president Nat Perlmutter was inducted into the GAMA International Management Hall of Fame--the organization's most prestigious annual award recognizing individual field leaders who have spent their careers serving the industry and building a thriving practice.
