Triple-I’s Chief Economist Joining July 6 Insurer Investment Panel

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Michel Léonard, Ph.D., CBE, Chief Economist and Data Scientist, Insurance Information Institute (Triple-I) is participating in a free-to-view webinar on Thursday, July 6, at 9 a.m., ET, on current trends in insurer investment strategies, Triple-I announced today.

“Uncertainty seems to be the only constant for insurance company chief investment officers these days. Against a backdrop of high inflation, continuing geopolitical tension, and a patchy economic outlook, managing an insurer’s investment portfolio now calls for 360 vision,” stated Insider Engage, which is conducting the webinar in partnership with S&P Global Market Intelligence.

Mastering Market Volatility: Insights into Insurer Investments will be moderated by Ben Dyson, insurance reporter, S&P Global Market Intelligence. Joining Léonard on the panel are:

• Eleanor Bucks, Chief Investment Officer, Lloyd’s

• Joseph Pursley, Head of Insurance, Americas, Nuveen

• Aurora Swithenbank, Chief Financial Officer, Vantage Group Holdings Ltd.
  

In reports released earlier this year, Triple-I found U.S. auto, home, and business insurers were more adversely affected by inflation than their global counterparts while also facing underwriting challenges due to the frequency and severity of natural disasters and higher interest rates.

Insider Engage takes a magazine-style, in-depth approach to the insurance industry’s biggest issues whereas S&P Global Market Intelligence is a division of S&P Global, a publicly traded company and one of the world’s foremost providers of credit ratings, benchmarks, analytics, and workflow solutions.

When registering for the webinar, prospective attendees will not be charged yet they will be asked to share with the webinar’s organizers their email address, phone number, and business affiliation.
