Video from ILS NYC 2024: Investor sentiment – Cultivating & aligning appetites

This video features an expert panel discussing trends in insurance-linked securities (ILS) investor sentiment and appetites 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 more than 30 countries across the globe to hear thought-provoking insights from insurance-linked securities (ILS) market leaders, all under the theme of “Growing into the higher return environment.”

This first video from our ILS NYC 2024 conference features a panel discussion focused on trends on the investor side of the market, titled: Investor sentiment: Cultivating and aligning appetites.

The panel discussion was moderated by Lorenzo Volpi, Deputy CEO, Managing Partner, Leadenhall Capital Partners LLP.

He was joined by: Eveline Takken-Somers, Senior Director, Lead Portfolio Manager – Insurance Portfolio, PGGM; Jason Bolding, Global Head of Sales & Distribution, Gallagher Securities; Bernard Van Der Stichele, Senior Portfolio Manager, ILS, Healthcare of Ontario Pension Plan (HOOPP); and Michael Stahel, Partner / Portfolio Manager, LGT ILS Partners Ltd.

The discussion focused on ILS investor sentiment, how appetites are developing, which instruments are receiving the most focus at this time, as well as how investor sentiment and appetites to allocate differ across catastrophe bonds and the more private ILS and reinsurance structures.

The panellists also explored what investors really want from the insurance-linked securities (ILS) asset class in 2024, including where their red lines might be, in terms of the discipline they expect to see from ILS managers
