A North Melbourne broker has won $5,000 in gold bullion at the Underwriting Agencies Council-Lloyd’s Village at the 2017 NIBA Convention in Sydney.

Cleveland Chu, an authorised representative for FP Insurance Brokers, won the prize after his passport was drawn from a pile of eligible entries, all of which were completed by visiting all 39 UAC member exhibitors in the village.

The event, themed “Insurance bridging communities,” saw a “flabbergasted” Cleveland get his first win after 26 years of being a broker, and a one-in-25 chance to walk away with a return trip to San Francisco, valued at more than $10,000.

Cleveland failed to get the travel prize in the lucky numbers draw, but was certainly happy to keep the gold.

UAC GM William Legge thanked UAC member Beazley Underwriting, which had underwritten the San Francisco prize, and Cunningham Lindsey, an independent auditor who oversaw the travel prize draw.
