Io S Market - What Makes H Beso Unique in the Space?

For this one of our sponsor showcase video interviews, for the upcoming Artemis ILS NYC 2022 conference (held April 22nd in New York City), we welcomed Tom Mackay, Senior Vice President and Vivian Ly, Client Relationship Manager, both from one of our Silver sponsors for the conference, global banking group HSBC. 

As ever, we’re looking at the development of the insurance-linked securities (ILS) market with one eye to the future, as is the way with Artemis’ ILS events. You can register for the event online here: https://www.artemis.bm/ils-nyc-2022/ 

HSBC is one of the largest banking groups in the world and offers a range of services that are used within ILS transactions, not least escrow and corporate trust, as well as adjacently across the insurance and reinsurance world. 

But with its global scale, it’s always interesting to hear the views of a major player in finance on a niche sector like insurance-linked securities. 

Tom and Vivian discussed a range of issues with us, but one highlight of the interview is HSBC's expectation that the importance of environmental, social & governance (ESG) will grow for the ILS market and cascade through to the service provider level as well.
