The Florida State Board of Administration made good on a decision to allocate more capital to natural catastrophe insurance-linked securities (ILS) ahead of the January renewals, with an additional $70 million investment in the RenaissanceRe vehicle Tintoretto Reinsurance Partners, LP made in the fourth-quarter.

The insurance-linked securities (ILS) and reinsurance investments portfolio of Dutch pension PFZW, which is managed by pension investment firm PGGM, delivered a 15.1% return for full-year 2024, while in asset terms the allocation was a little down year-on-year but flat through the fourth-quarter.

Having previously indicated that it was cautious on reinsurance market conditions and undecided as to whether to add to its insurance-linked securities (ILS) investments for the January 2025 renewals, the Florida State Board of Administration now appears set to move forwards and increase its allocation to the sector.

The market should expect Swiss Re to continue building out its capabilities across insurance-linked securities (ILS) and alternative reinsurance capital, as the company is benefiting from their growth, while investors in Alternative Capital Partners (ACP) structures have been enjoying “very strong performance”, CFO John Dacey said today.

Global reinsurance company Swiss Re said today that its third-party capital markets focused Alternative Capital Partners (ACP) division is supporting its long-term growth trajectory in natural catastrophe risks.

Pension investment firm PGGM, allocating on behalf of end-client the Dutch pension fund PFZW, subscribed for an additional $175 million of shares in its RenaissanceRe managed joint-venture rated reinsurance underwriting vehicle Vermeer Re during the third-quarter of 2024.

The Florida Retirement System Pension Plan, which is administered by the Florida State Board of Administration, increased its allocations to natural catastrophe insurance-linked securities (ILS) in advance of the mid-year 2024 reinsurance renewals, but has adopted a more cautious stance for 1/1 as it assesses whether the hard market is declining.

The broadly diversified portfolio of insurance-linked securities (ILS) and reinsurance investments managed by pension investment firm PGGM on behalf of end-client the Dutch pension PFZW, delivered a 5.8% return for the third-quarter, lifting year-to-date returns to 11.7%.

PGGM, the Dutch pension investment manager has allocated $200 million to a new quota share structure named Scenery Re on behalf of its end-client the Dutch pension PFZW, with the vehicle managed by Everest specialist unit Mt. Logan Capital Management, Ltd. (MLCM).

The target allocation range has been increased for a Munich Re sidecar investment that features in the insurance-linked securities (ILS) portfolio managed by PGGM, the Dutch pension fund investment manager, on behalf of its end-client the Dutch pension PFZW.
