Video from ILS NYC 2024: Catastrophe bonds: Building on solid ground

This video features an expert panel discussing trends in the catastrophe bond market at our Artemis ILS NYC 2024 conference, held in New York on February 9th 2024.

ILS NYC 2024 was Artemis’ largest insurance-linked securities (ILS) conference to-date, with over 410 registered attendees enjoying insightful debates from our expert speakers, as well as valuable networking opportunities throughout the day.

Attendees came from over 30 countries around the globe, to hear thought-provoking insights from catastrophe bond and insurance-linked securities (ILS) market leaders, all under the theme of “Growing into the higher return environment.”

This second video from our ILS NYC 2024 conference features a panel discussion focused on trends in the cat bond market, titled: Catastrophe bonds: Building on solid ground.

The panel discussion was moderated by Alex Mican, Head of PCS Global Strategy and Growth, Verisk Insurance Solutions.

He was joined by: Lynn Finkel, Chief Risk Officer, Revantage, A Blackstone Company; Michael Bennett, Head of Derivatives & Structured Finance, World Bank Treasury; Stephan Ruoff, Head of ILS, Schroders Capital; and Cory Anger, Managing Director, GC Securities.

The discussion focused on the cat bond market, looking ahead to what 2024 could bring for a market setting new records, on the back of growing demand from both sponsors and investors.

The panellists also explored what cedents really want from the cat bond market and how the investor-base can support their needs, as well as what structural opportunities could be presented and how catastrophe bonds can extend their role in disaster risk financing around the globe.

Watch the full video of this catastrophe bond focused panel discussion for unique insights into how the cat bond market is set up for 2024, and what developments may be seen in cat bond structuring and offerings, to support both sponsor and investor needs.
