Investing in Insurance Event linked Securities - untapped securitisation potential

Dr. Karsten Bromann, Michael Stahel, Barney Schauble
This inter-active webinar has been designed to address investment related issues - in an asset class, that offers uncorrelated market returns. In keeping with A SQUARE’s endeavour to make sure you stay ahead of the investment curve, our distinguished panel:

will share insights and perspectives based on their “hands-on-experience” in this space and will address the following:

  1. What circumstances and motives prompt insurers/reinsurers to consider transferring risk to financial markets?

  2. Total risk = parametric risk (hazard risk, transferred to capital markets) + vulnerability risk (kept by insurers& re-insurers through the underwriting process ):
    • Ceding hazard risk
    • Assessment
    • Evaluation: triggers, models and their constrains

  3. New perils; the importance of investing in a diversified menu of perils

  4. „Consistency + reliability of transactions are extremely important for investors to enter the sector" Elaborate.

  5. Is transferring of catastrophe risk to capital markets, different from credit risk - in what ways and why?
