It is a special honour and privilege for me to serve as President of the Caribbean Association of Insurance and Financial Advisors (CARAIFA).

His quiet and sensitive disposition has made him a wonderful role model and for this I thank him. Fortunately for all of us, Emond will continue to serve in the position of Immediate Past President with responsibility for Territorial Development and Hall Of Fame. I am especially grateful that I will be able to rely on his wise counsel during my term.
