New York City, NY – Re/insurance Outlook USA 2024, an event exploring how re/insurers can consistently deliver growth and drive profit amid complex and challenging market conditions, is set to take place on May 2, 2024. Senior leaders from reinsurers, brokers, and cedants from across North America will attend the event, which will be held at 1166 Avenue of the Americas.
With the reinsurance industry facing increasingly complex market conditions including escalating social, economic, and geopolitical risks, the event will provide a platform for industry professionals to discuss and navigate an ongoing hard market in many lines of business. This will require innovative solutions and risk transfer strategies to achieve growth and steady profits.
The conference will focus on the lessons learned from the 1/1 renewals, expectations for the mid-year 6/1 and 7/1 renewals, and the challenges stemming from social inflation, legal system abuse, and nuclear verdicts. It will also address the gap in supply and demand in some lines of business.
In addition, the event will cover topics such as advancements in risk models, portfolio management in the context of climate change, and new and innovative risk transfer techniques that are changing the dynamic between reinsurers, brokers, and cedants.
Speakers will also discuss challenges affecting underwriting strategy and how capital is managed and allocated. With rates in many lines of business hardening and capacity becoming more selective, the event will explore how inflation, economic uncertainty, and new entrants are changing the landscape.
To address these challenges, reinsurers and their clients must embrace data, technology, and innovation to stay ahead of the competition. This event will inspire and inform delegates, helping them make better strategic decisions.
Featuring over 20 senior leaders from companies such as SCOR, General Re, AXA XL, Sompo International, Guy Carpenter, SiriusPoint, Everest Re, Markel, and Axis Capital, Re/insurance Outlook USA 2024 will examine the unique risks and opportunities reinsurance leaders must grapple with when making strategic decisions around underwriting and portfolio management.
Speakers and panellists will share their expertise on managing volatility and integrating alternative forms of capital, aligning broker interests, and helping clients navigate the hard market.
