RISK MANAGEMENT, INC. 86 TH ANNUAL CONVENTION RMI Will See You at Convention It doesn’t seem as though it’s been a year, yet here we are – all of us ready to connect and join together at the LMA’s Annual Convention again. This year, we’ll be in Alexandria at the Randolph Riverfront Center. As a sponsor and vendor, we look forward to talking with you about the many services we can offer, and how those services can not only assist your municipalities, but also save you money. Our services include General Liability, Automobile Liability, Law Enforcement Professional Liability, Public Official Errors and Omissions, Workman’s Compensation, Dental, Cyber Liability, Accident and Health, Automobile Collision/ Comprehensive (Physical Damage), Airport Commercial General Liability, Fire and Property, Personal Automobile, Inland Marine, and More! We’ll also be holding a convention workshop on Saturday, August 5. We’ll discuss “Municipal Risks – How RMI Has Your Back.” RMI has been the servicing arm of the LMA Self-Insured Funds for over 35 years. This session will discuss the daily risks that municipalities face, as well as how to prepare for reducing these exposures and address how to respond when incidents arise. We will provide the tools and training needed to meet the coverage demands of Louisiana municipalities. So, make sure you stop by and visit us at our booth, say hello when you come to our workshop, or stop us if you see us walking by. We invite discussions so that you have a clear picture of what services you can best utilize to save you money and unwanted headaches. See you soon! by Patrick Cronin General Manager, RMI Cronin leads Risk Management, Inc. (RMI) - a subsidiary of LMA. He can be reached at pcronin@rmila.com.
