With the one of the biggestmeetings in the insurance industry just days awaythe Risk and Insurance Management Society's annual conference in Orlandoattendance is on the minds of many.

The way the economy is going, with company layoffs and belt-tightening, its only natural to wonder how budget constraints will affect conference attendance.
