Board of Governors

The ALTA Board of Governors is responsible for setting overall policy for the Association, including government affairs positions, and for overseeing the fiscal condition and professional staff of the ALTA. The Board has eleven members and is divided between abstracter/title agent and title insurer representatives, with the Section of the President having five members and the other Section having six. Each year, the majority shifts between sections, although most Board votes tend to be unanimous.
