At our recent ILS Asia 2021 event, a panel of experienced insurance-linked securities (ILS) professionals discussed investment management issues with a view to the Asian marketplace.
In spite of the pandemic and the inability to travel, the panellists noted that through the use of technology it’s still possible to build relationships with prospective investors and overall, developments in the ILS industry continue to be positive.
Panellists discuss the appetite for ILS and reinsurance linked investments among the Asian investor community and the fact it persists.
They also discussed the importance of communication around things like loss creep and climate change, especially when considering new investors in the Asia region.
Building partnership with investors in ILS was seen as key by the panellists, given the need to educate and keep communication around reinsurance loss events and also the vagaries of how the ILS structures themselves work.
