The Polish Chamber of Insurance (PIU) is a statutory organisation of industry self-government.
It was established in 1990 and represents all insurance companies operating in Poland.
PIU supports the legislator in shaping insurance law and conducts a multilateral dialogue for the development of the insurance sector in our country. It issues opinions on legal acts and submits their drafts. It represents the market in legislative work.
PIU cooperates with the Polish Financial Supervision Authority (KNF), the Insurance Guarantee Fund (UFG), the Financial Ombudsman, the Office of Competition and Consumer Protection (UOKiK), the Polish Chamber of Insurance and Reinsurance Brokers, the Polish Society of Actuaries, the Polish Chamber of Insurance and Financial Intermediaries, AIDA (International Association for Insurance Law), the Polish Bank Association and other chambers, unions and associations.
PIU exchanges information and cooperates with foreign institutions and works towards community law. It operates the PIU office in Brussels.
The Polish Chamber of Insurance promotes good market practices and supports insurer initiatives (e.g. preventive initiatives). It increases public awareness about insurance. It disseminates knowledge about insurance in its handbooks and numerous publications.
In order to preserve the high quality and the image of the Polish insurance market, as a representative of the insurers, the Polish Chamber of Insurance makes every effort to protect and improve the conditions of their operations. The Polish Chamber of Insurance is managed by a management board, whose work is supervised by the Audit Committee. The Chamber’s tasks are performed via the office, which is a competence centre of the industry’s self-government. The office organises the work of technical committees, carries out projects supporting legislative processes
and supervises cooperation with the market and other institutions. Factual support for the management board and PIU members is provided
by permanent committees, subcommittees, teams and working groups. They comprise employees from insurance companies.
