Details

We return in 2019 with the goal of demystifying the ILS market and furthering education on the resilience of an asset class, in the wake of two heavy catastrophe loss years. Of course we'll also look at emerging trends in the ILS market, as well as future opportunities for growth, with discussions kept relevant for the regional market in Asia Pacific and surroundings. We will look at the way the catastrophe bond, ILS and collateralized reinsurance market responded to the catastrophe losses, what investment managers did to reassure their investors, how
risks were reassessed and what needs to happen next to ensure sustainable and profitable growth of the ILS market. The ILS business model continues to adapt to market conditions, providing new opportunities for both those in the ILS market and the third-party investors who find the asset class appealing. With our events, we try to create the kind of conference that we would want to attend ourselves, mixing great speakers, insightful content, a forward-thinking outlook and quality networking.

Learn about the ILS asset class, the catastrophe bond market, collateralized reinsurance structures, reinsurance linked investment strategies and the future of risk transfer, with a focus on Asia:
• The development of ILS in Asia
• Considerations for Asian investors
• Singapore's ILS opportunity
• Protection gap, hedging, and more
• Where next for ILS & cat bonds

Who should attend?
• Hear topics of interest to ceding insurers or reinsurers, investors, asset managers, service providers and anyone else for who the growing ILS market presents an opportunity or interest.
• Meet senior executives from (re)insurance companies, catastrophe bond and ILS fund managers, risk modellers, law firms, pension investors, hedge fund managers, investment bankers and other capital market or reinsurance service providers.
