Attendees from across the globe assembled to hear thought-provoking insights from insurance-linked securities (ILS) market leaders, all under the theme of "Capturing opportunities (established & new)."
Our next episode from the ILS NYC 2025 conference features the second panel discussion of the day, which was focused on the expansion of parametric risk transfer investment opportunities in the insurance-linked securities (ILS) market.
The panel discussion was moderated by Martin Malinow, CEO, Parameter Climate.

Panellists discussed the evolution of the parametric insurance, reinsurance and risk transfer market, speaking about the history of this segment and its maturity into a parametric ILS opportunity for investors.
Speakers also explored what it is that makes parametric risk transfer an investable asset class in its own right, how this can be an attractive portfolio complement for ILS investors and where they expect to see growth in the use of third-party investor capital to support parametric insurance and reinsurance market growth.
