AIDA is a non-profit making international association, formed in

international level, collaboration between its members with a
view to increasing the study and knowledge of international and

propose measures with a view to the insurance industry adopting
them at a national and international level, leading to
harmonisation of insurance law or means for resolution of
insurance disputes.
AIDA carry out activities through a World Congress once every
four years, arranged by one (or more) of its National Chapters,
on Working Parties’ meetings held every two years and in
international colloquium organised by the National Chapters.
AIDA participates in international meetings such as conferences
and symposia, co-operating with the other bodies on insurance
themes.
AIDA has established following Working Parties:
1. Motor insurance;
2. Life insurance, private pensions insurance;

AIDA issues periodicals reporting on the association’s
activities, including updates on National Chapter and Working
Party activities, and developments in insurance law from around
the world. An example of such a publication is AIDA Mail, the
electronic newsletter of AIDA that is produced once every four
months. Furthermore, AIDA has an interest in forming Working
Parties and alliances with relevant institutions, including
educational institutions, with the aim of researching and
collaborating knowledge concerning insurance law and related
matters, on an international and national level.
Members are required to collaborate in the implementation of
AIDA’s aims and, in particular, to prepare reports for the World
Congresses and communicate, at least once a year, information on
the development of insurance law in their own countries.
A Presidential Council defines AIDA’s working programme at an
international level. The Presidential Council is composed of the
President, Honorary Presidents, up to four Vice-Presidents, the
Chairmen of the Working Parties and a maximum of 25 councillors.
Members of the Presidential Council are elected for a term of
four years, except for the Honorary Presidents. Generally, the
President may be re-elected once (twice in exceptional
circumstances). The Presidential Council is elected by the
General Assembly, which endeavours to achieve fair geographical
and linguistic representation on the Council. The Presidential
Council generally meets twice a year where possible. Their
meetings are organised to coincide with meetings of the Working
Parties, often at a colloquium organised by a National Chapter.
The official languages of AIDA are French, English, German,
Italian and Spanish.
AIDA’s membership is made up of National Chapters - nationally
organised insurance law associations which are members of AIDA,
the parent organisation. AIDA does not have individual members
(physical and legal persons), those who are interested in the
work of AIDA are encouraged to join the relevant National
Chapter. Association for Insurance Law is the national
institution in Serbia of that kind.
Our Association tends to develop close co-operation with the
National Chapters of AIDA from the neighbouring countries,
having in mind that lack of financial means prevents connecting
with National Chapters from Americas, Asia and Australia.
Within the world of AIDA operates another regional organization – AIDA South America. |
