We were delighted to be given some insight into global reinsurance giant Swiss Re's plans for future insurance-linked securities (ILS) activities by Judy Klugman, Global Co-Head of ILS, and Ed Johnson, Head of ILS Sales EMEA & APAC, both from Swiss Re Capital Markets.
The pair joined us as part of our virtual ILS NYC 2021 conference, to discuss the role of the reinsurer in delivering next generation ILS investment opportunities.
Judy and Ed explained where the next generation of ILS investment opportunities with Swiss Re as a partner will likely come from.
As well as what the role of a global reinsurance player like Swiss Re is in delivering future ILS investment opportunities and structures.
We also touched on how Swiss Re’s strategy of bringing ILS capacity into its own capital structure more directly is going to continue to evolve.
While lines of insurance and reinsurance business that may be deemed suitable to partner with capital market investors were also a topic of conversation.
Judy and Ed also gave us their thoughts on the future role of the catastrophe bond as a staple of ILS and reinsurance risk management.
