The purpose of the Association is to safeguard and promote the common interests of its members, to provide advice with respect to common issues, to comment on the economic and legislative processes affecting the insurance industry, and to represent common concerns.

The Association also promotes cooperation with relevant national and international institutions for the purpose of safeguarding the interests of its members.

In June 2003, the Association became a full member of CEA (Comité Européen des Assurances), the European Federation of National Insurance Associations, which almost all European countries have joined, in order to observe transregional developments and to deal with common problems.

Finally, the Association aims to contribute to the importance of Liechtenstein as an insurance center.
