Our Purpose

The Compliance & Ethics Forum for Life Insurers (“CEFLI”) provides a Forum to serve the needs of the life insurance industry’s compliance and ethics professionals.  CEFLI is “The Forum That Connects.”

Our History

In 2011, a group of chief compliance & ethics officers identified the need for an organization that could facilitate critical connections and help compliance and ethics professionals stay ahead of the curve in an ever-changing and increasingly complex business and regulatory environment.  The CCOs also recognized the tremendous value of having meaningful interactions with regulators in a non-advocacy manner.  Accordingly, CEFLI was formed as a nonprofit, non-advocacy organization and it quickly established a unique position in the life insurance industry by promoting collaborative interactions between regulators and industry compliance professionals.

What We Do

As the only non-advocacy organization devoted exclusively to compliance and ethics in the life insurance industry, CEFLI is the premier provider of compliance-related education and training.  It is uniquely situated to help life insurance compliance and ethics professionals come together as a community through the offering of a diverse array of educational and networking opportunities that include a blend of in-person and remote opportunities.

What We Offer
