Ep 90 Javier San Basilio of Mapfre Re: Not opportunistic by definition

September 14, 2021

In insurance and reinsurance we hear a lot of talk about partnerships, but in truth we know that many relationships are marriages of convenience or indeed opportunistic liaisons that are not designed to last.

If I was a reinsurance buyer I would like my reinsurer to be committed to supporting me in the long term and someone who was unlikely to run away if I have had a bad year.

I’d like to be able to confide in them and I’d really value it if they were perhaps even a little boring in their consistency.

Javier San Basilio the CUO of Mapfre Re is very much the embodiment of this old school of reinsurer.

I really enjoyed spending time with someone able to give a calm and considered analysis of the state of the reinsurance market today and I think you will too.

Listen on for valuable insights and a sense of where Mapfre’s steadily increasing influence is likely to be felt in the run-up to 1.1 and beyond.
