Industry Leaders to Gather at Re/insurance Outlook USA 2024 Conference in New York City
On Wednesday, April 10, 2024, senior leaders from reinsurers, brokers, and cedants from across North America will gather in New York City to attend the Re/insurance Outlook USA 2024 conference. The event will focus on exploring how re/insurers can consistently deliver growth and drive profit amid complex and challenging market conditions.
The conference, organized by Intelligent Insurer, will feature 20+ speakers from companies such as SCOR, General Re, AXA XL, Sompo International, Guy Carpenter, SiriusPoint, Everest Re, Markel, and Axis Capital. These industry leaders, responsible for setting and managing strategy and risk appetite, will share their insights and experiences on navigating the ongoing hard market and finding innovative solutions and risk transfer strategies to achieve growth and steady profits.
One of the main topics of discussion will be the lessons learned from the 1/1 renewals and expectations for the mid-year 6/1 and 7/1 renewals, as well as the challenges stemming from social inflation, reserves, and the gap in supply and demand in certain lines of business. Speakers will also address specific challenges such as advancements in risk models, portfolio management in the context of climate change, and new and innovative risk transfer techniques.
The conference will also focus on the challenges affecting underwriting strategy and capital management, with rates in many lines of business continuing to harden and capacity becoming more selective. Inflation and economic uncertainty are also creating challenges for reinsurers, while new entrants and talent are changing the landscape with innovative risk transfer techniques and strategies.
According to Helen Raff, Director of Event Portfolio at Intelligent Insurer, this event is crucial for industry players to come together and discuss the core issues facing the re/insurance industry. Raff added, “There has never been a more important time for reinsurers, brokers, and cedants to come together to discuss the core issues facing the industry.”
The conference, to be held at 1166 Avenue of the Americas, will feature in-depth case studies, interactive roundtables, and lively panel debates designed to deliver the strategic insight that insurance executives need to instigate and deliver innovation in this fast-evolving and complex space. Delegates will have the opportunity to network with C-level executives directly involved in setting industry strategy and gain a deeper understanding of the highest growth but risky new lines.
This event is the latest in a series of conferences organized by Intelligent Insurer, with the aim of equipping industry players with the networks, insights, and knowledge needed to progress their careers and drive the wider evolution of the re/insurance industry.
