Investor interest in insurance-linked securities (ILS), particularly on the private ILS and reinsurance side of the market, can be enhanced with a continuation of the prudent approach to underwriting currently being seen, Marcel Grandi, Head of ILS Sourcing at Twelve Capital told us.

Twelve Capital, the Zurich-headquartered insurance-linked securities (ILS), catastrophe bond and reinsurance investment manager, remains positive on the potential for the private ILS market to continue to recover from its recent historical challenges and intends to launch a new strategy to target the end of year renewal period, Marcel Grandi, Head of ILS Sourcing told Artemis.

The insurance sector is one of the most attractive in the universe of investment grade bonds right now, with manager Twelve Capital saying that its not just a good entry point, but also a good time to reposition fixed income portfolios towards insurance-linked assets.

The well-established and growing life insurance-linked securities (ILS) segment offers a very stable profile and true diversification for investors, both within ILS and when compared to traditional asset classes, according to industry experts.

Catastrophe bond, insurance-linked securities (ILS) and reinsurance investment manager Twelve Capital has grown its asset base through the first-quarter of 2023, reaching a new level of $4.2 billion of firm-wide assets under management.

Twelve Capital, the Zurich headquartered investment manager with a focus on insurance-linked securities (ILS), insurance and reinsurance linked investments, is set to develop a life ILS investment offering, announcing a strategic tie-up with specialist life ILS boutique Farsight Partners.

For our latest Artemis Live video interview, we discussed the state of the catastrophe bond market after hurricane Ian and the opportunities now available to investors with Florian Steiger, Head of Cat Bonds at specialist ILS and reinsurance asset manager Twelve Capital.

Investing in insurance bonds looks even more compelling now against the broader macro-economic backdrop of volatile markets, according to Dinesh Pawar, Head of Insurance Bonds at specialist sector investment manager Twelve Capital.

As the insurance-linked securities (ILS) market continues to reset itself after a number of years of heavy catastrophe losses, growth is likely to be more prominent in areas such as catastrophe bonds and top-layer peak peril strategies, that have displayed more consistent performance, Twelve Capital’s Marcel Grandi believes.

The insurance-linked securities (ILS) market needs to defend the gains it has made in improved terms and conditions, making sure technical underwriting standards are maintained, Marcel Grandi of investment manager Twelve Capital has said.
