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 speakers from LGT ILS Partners, one of our Associate sponsors for the conference.
Joining us for this conversation were Christian Bruns and Michael Stahel, two Partners and Portfolio Managers from LGT ILS Partners.
The pair discussed the state of the reinsurance and insurance-linked securities (ILS) market, explaining that they are seeing positive shifts.
These positive shifts are coming as the industry absorbs and digests the impacts of multiple years of high catastrophe losses, which at recent reinsurance renewal rounds have enabled LGT ILS Partners to improve its portfolios of risk.
Bruns and Stahel also discussed the benefits of LGT ILS Partners' having its own rated reinsurance balance-sheet and how that adds efficiency to how they face the market.
Finally, we discussed two hot topics for the ILS investment community, climate change and ESG.
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. Event details can be found here:
