Introducing Reinsurance News’ first ever Monte Carlo Rendezvous Roundtable event, where industry executives examined disruption, catastrophe modelling and other key fundamental shifts currently sweeping the market.
With our executive panel spoilt for topics to pick apart and discuss, focus first settled on the record catastrophe years in 2017 and 2018, capital market behaviour, and whether the changes currently taking place are structural or cyclical.
As technology’s role continues to expand and evolve within re/insurance and society more broadly, participants reflected on how entry and exit barriers to the market are being altered, as well as the way underwriting decisions are being affected.
Market psychology was explored, as well as the way collective assumptions in the face of catastrophes influence sector behaviour.
Within the context of its ongoing modernisation push, the panel also considered Lloyd’s place moving forward, and how steps currently being undertaken could prove key to future success.
With key players from across the sector – such as broking, insurance, reinsurance and analytics – our panel provides a comprehensive and insightful view of the market.
With significant global issues such as cyber and climate change still looming large, it will be interesting to see how the reinsurance market adapts to and copes with such unpredictable and volatile risks.
It seems likely that collaborative efforts powered by bleeding edge technology and analytics will prove invaluable moving forward.
