Episode 112, Nov 02, 2022, 12:26 PM
This fifth session from our Artemis London 2022 conference features a keynote speech from the CFO and COO of Lloyd's, Burkhard Keese, who discusses the Lloyd's market's use of insurance-linked securities (ILS) structures and growing appetite to engage with investors in this way.
This was the fifth session of the day from our Artemis London 2022 conference, held on September 6th, 2022.
The event was Artemis' first insurance-linked securities (ILS) conference held in the City of London and saw more than 240 attendees enjoy a wide-range of sessions and networking opportunities.
Themed largely around the catastrophe bond, attendees heard from expert speakers that have been in the sector for years, as well as newcomers with ideas of how to innovate the cat bond and ILS market going forwards.
Attendees came from as far afield as New Zealand, Hawaii, Asia, North and South America, Bermuda, as well as a large European contingent, plus as you’d expect numerous London marketplace leaders in ILS and reinsurance.
This fifth session from the event features a keynote speech from the CFO and COO of Lloyd's, Burkhard Keese.
During his keynote, Burkhard Keese explained Lloyd's evolving approach to insurance-linked securities (ILS) and its appetite to expand its use of ILS structures to work directly with investors that want to supply third-party capital directly into the market.
"We have introduced London Bridge to open up the London market, the Lloyd's market, to institutional investors in an easy and modern way.
"Yes it took, I would say, at least ten years longer than it took in Bermuda and Guernsey, but we are now there," Keese explained.
