ILS NYC 2021

The insurance and reinsurance industry’s relative lack of correlation with broader financial markets is now more important than ever before, Michael Millette explained at our ILS NYC 2021 event.

Today, there’s a significant amount of capital looking to be deployed in an environmental, social, and governance (ESG) friendly way, which represents a material opportunity for the insurance-linked securities (ILS) asset class, says Barney Schauble, Head of Labs at Nephila Advisors.

Global reinsurance firm Swiss Re is working towards transferring a much broader range of risks to the capital markets in future, as it looks to expand its insurance-linked securities (ILS) activities beyond pure natural catastrophe risks to a more capital management approach, according to Judy Klugman and Ed Johnson, speaking at our ILS NYC 2021 […]

Niklaus Hilti, Head of insurance-linked securities (ILS) at Credit Suisse Insurance Linked Strategies, has commended the success and growth of the asset class over the past decade, but warns that in order to maintain this positive momentum it will need to address the world’s largest risks.

It’s just a matter of time before the use of industry loss triggers for risk transfer transactions broadens and is more widely used, which in turn will unlock more diversifying risk into certain sub-sectors of the insurance-linked securities (ILS) space, according to Tom Johansmeyer, Head of PCS.

We now have an almost complete agenda available for our upcoming ILS NYC 2021 online and virtual event.

As the world continues to deal with the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, we remain locked-down at home and unable to hold in-person events, so sadly our fifth ILS NYC conference has to be virtually held.
