Episode 103,   Jun 14, 2022, 02:58 PM

Listen to an hour long discussion on the need for the insurance-linked securities (ILS) market to become increasingly differentiated, with new classes of business and investment models, as well as some updates on the real progress being made by the ILS asset class to become more diversified in its offering.

This is the third session from our Artemis ILS NYC 2022 conference, held in New York City on April 22nd, 2022. 

This was the largest insurance-linked securities conference in the world since our last in Feb 2020, prior to the pandemic. 

Over 200 attendees assembled in New York to hear industry expert speakers under the theme of "(Re)setting the scene", discussing the future of the insurance-linked securities (ILS) market as the COVID-19 pandemic abates and the industry adjusts to another year of catastrophe losses. 

This was the third session of the conference and featured a vibrant discussion on the topic of why the ILS market needs to become increasingly differentiated, in order to offer investors choice and ensure it can meet ceding company needs, as well as how much progress is really being made in expanding the ILS asset class into new classes of insurance and reinsurance business. 

This session was moderated by: Stephan Ruoff, Head of ILS, Schroders Capital. 

Participants were: Brittany Baker, Director - Technical Sales in Growth, CyberCube; Rob Hauff, Portfolio Manager, Vesttoo; and James Lee, Managing Director, Aspen Capital Markets.
