About

A2ii-IAIS Dialogues (formerly Consultation Calls) are one-hour virtual events focused on a thematic topic. Supervisory Dialogues are restricted to only insurance supervisors, whereas the Public Dialogues provide a platform for a wider community of stakeholders, including the industry.

You will find summaries of our Dialogues on the A2ii Blog. Presentations from the Dialogues are made available on the events’ pages, and some recordings from our Supervisory Dialogues are available on the Connect platform.
