FERMA was established in 1974 under the name of the European Association of Industrial Insureds (AEAI) as an international association with the aim of representing the interests of commercial insurance buyers and exchanging ideas and experiences. Today, FERMA brings together 22 risk management associations in 21 European countries and represents more than 4,800 risk managers across a wide range of business sectors, from major industrial and commercial companies to financial institutions and local government bodies. FERMA provides the means of co-ordinating risk management and optimising the impact of its membership associations outside their national boundaries on a European level. FERMA promotes communication among its members and also within IFRIMA (International Federation of Risk and Insurance Management Associations), of which FERMA is a member.
