Mr. Silvan Said also expressed enthusiasm regarding the collaboration: "This partnership is another milestone in our mission to provide learning opportunities and professional development for individuals working in the insurance, risk management, and personal finance sectors. These industries are among the most dynamic and rapidly growing globally. We are grateful to AMAN Union for choosing us as their partner for training and human resources development, and we are committed to delivering the high-quality training that our institute is known for, offering the best opportunities for success to the trainees enrolled in our programs."

By collaborating with leading training institutions like RISC Institute DMCC, AMAN Union aims to fortify the insurance industry across OIC countries, ensuring it remains resilient, competitive, and prepared to meet the evolving demands of global markets.
