Our sister publication Reinsurance News spoke with Nikhil da Victoria Lobo, Head of P&C Reinsurance for Western & Southern Europe and Middle East & Africa at industry giant Swiss Re in the run up to the annual Baden-Baden reinsurance event about market dynamics across his regions.
Swiss Re will have a key focus on stability and consistency during its negotiations with clients at the 2025 Baden-Baden Reinsurance Meeting, as the market navigates underlying strengths and challenges ahead of the key January 1st renewal season, da Victoria Lobo explained.
The discussion covered supply demand dynamics, the outlook for the 1.1 renewals, rising secondary perils and frequency covers, emerging technologies such as AI, as well as the role of innovative structures like parametric risk transfer, and more.
