Bermuda Reinsurance CEOs Discuss Putting Capital to Work at 2024 Bermuda Risk Summit

HAMILTON, Bermuda--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
A panel of Bermuda reinsurance CEOs offer a unique lens into optimising capital deployment, risk management, and the dynamic forces shaping the industry's future at the 2024 Bermuda Risk Summit, presented by the Bermuda Business Development Agency (BDA), in partnership with the Association of Bermuda Insurers and Reinsurers (ABIR) and EY.

The panel entitled, ‘Putting Capital to Work: A View From the Top’ will be moderated by John Huff, CEO, ABIR and features panelists, Peter Bell, CEO and Managing Director, Everest Reinsurance Bermuda, Mark Cloutier, Executive Chair and Group CEO, Aspen, Kathleen Reardon, CEO, Hiscox Re + ILS, and Paul Simons, CEO, Convex Re.

John Huff said, “It is a pleasure to once again be moderating a panel at the Bermuda Risk Summit, which ABIR has been a headline sponsor of since its inception three years ago. I look forward to asking these CEOs why Bermuda remains the world’s risk capital, as well as discussing our global prominence as a property and casualty market. It also speaks to Bermuda’s significance that we continue to attract such regulatory heavy hitters, including the President of the National Association of Insurance Commissioners (NAIC), four NAIC commissioners, as well as Steven Seitz, Director of the Federal Insurance Office (FIO), all travelling to participate in the summit.”

Mark Cloutier said, “The summit comes at a time of strong performance from the Bermudian reinsurance sector which makes it the perfect time to reflect on what we are doing well as an industry, as well as how we can seek to improve. One of the most unique aspects of Bermuda’s risk market is how you can gather the most influential players, from government, to the regulator and the private sector all in the same room to collectively think about where the risk and insurance industry needs to go next.”

Other panels taking place at the Bermuda Risk Summit, being held at the Hamilton Princess & Beach Club from March 13-15 include Market View: Global Regulators, Lloyd’s – Bermuda: A Shared Perspective, Legacy Redefined, and ‘Securing Tomorrow: Developments in Cyber Risk Strategy.
