Financial Services: Still Spending

$3 million: That was the average annual incentive budget for the insurance and financial services companies that responded to a survey by CMI's sister publication Insurance Conference Planner. That number is up more than $1 million from two years ago, the last time the magazine did this survey of readers. As well, 92 percent of respondents said that they expect to plan more or the same number of incentives in 2005.
