UAC hosts successful underwriting expo in Norwest Sydney

Underwriting Agencies Council (UAC), the representative organisation for Australian underwriting agencies, held a successful underwriting expo in Norwest Sydney on August 10 (Wednesday).

The UAC Underwriting Expo enables brokers to talk directly to UAC member agencies and business service members about their specialist products and services.
