History and Mission
The PPIA was formed in 2007 as a business association of insurance companies, other institutional investors and affiliates thereof that are active direct investors in the primary market for privately placed debt instruments to provide a discussion forum for such organizations; to facilitate the development of best practices among such organizations; to promote interest in the primary market for privately placed debt instruments; and to increase accessibility to capital for issuers of privately placed debt instruments.
The PPIA is governed by a Board of Directors consisting of eight (8) members (including the President and Vice President), elected by the members at large, each to serve a term of three years. Regular meeting of the Board are held at least two times during the year.
