Using the power of AI, you can now listen to a review of the conference that provides insights into the main themes of discussion during the panel sessions at the event.

Please note, being AI generated this is embellished somewhat, but it does provide an accurate representation of discussions that took place, key themes that emerged and how the conference went on the day.

It’s clear from the discussions had at the conference that the insurance-linked securities (ILS) market is in good health, but still has a lot more it can do to meet its potential.

Opportunities abound, but the need to meet them with discipline remains critical, to ensure the resilience and sustainability of the ILS product offering for both protection buyers and investors.

At the same time, the industry has a clear need to continue its process of educating customers on both sides of the trade, while also explaining the beneficial way capital markets can play a growing role in global insurance, reinsurance and risk transfer.

While the ILS market is in good health and considerably more mature in 2026, it still has the potential to grow and evolve much further, to play an increasingly important role by embedding itself ever more deeply into global risk and reinsurance capital provision.
