Coventry CEO Reid Buerger Wins Finseca 2025 ID Twenty Award

KUALA LUMPUR, Jan 21 (Bernama) -- Coventry announced its chief executive officer (CEO), Reid Buerger, has been named a 2025 ID Twenty Award recipient by Finseca, recognising leadership and innovation in the independent insurance distribution sector.

Buerger was recognised for his leadership in the secondary market for life insurance and for guiding Coventry’s efforts to expand access, transparency and value for policyowners across independent distribution channels.

In a statement, Buerger said this recognition reflects the work its team at Coventry continues to do to expand the secondary market for life insurance.

“Independent distribution plays an important role in helping policyowners understand their options, and we remain focused on building market structures that support choice, value and long-term outcomes,” he said.

The award was presented at NAILBA 44 and honours 20 industry leaders each year whose work has driven measurable impact across insurance distribution, product development and client outcomes.

Finseca’s ID Twenty Award is regarded as one of the industry’s top distinctions, spotlighting professionals whose contributions have materially advanced the insurance ecosystem.

Coventry is the creator and market leader of the secondary market for life insurance, providing solutions that help policyowners unlock value from existing life insurance assets.
