Bermuda holds life re/insurance conference

Bermuda International Long Term Insurers and Reinsurers yesterday held its 12th annual Bermuda International Life and Annuity Conference with 450 global re/insurance industry professionals in attendance.

Speakers included Doris Kearns Goodwin, presidential historian and Pulitzer Prize-winning author, Petra Hielkema, European Insurance and Occupational Pensions Authority (EIOPA) Chairperson, Andy Mais, President of the National Association of Insurance Commissioners (NAIC) and Craig Swan, CEO of the Bermuda Monetary Authority (BMA). 

BILTIR said the conference was the only industry event uniquely focused on the long-term insurance and reinsurance industry in Bermuda.  

Speaking sessions throughout the day focused on global regulatory frameworks and opportunities for the long-term insurance industry. Panelists will discuss the intersection of strong regulations, capital and expertise, why more Japanese life insurers are seeking reinsurance opportunities from Bermuda and how insurers are helping bridge the protection gap and optimizing assets and liabilities.

“As a leading jurisdiction for regulatory strength and growth, Bermuda is a perfect place to discuss important timely trends that highlight the industry’s innovation-led path forward,” said Suzanne Williams-Charles, CEO of BILTIR. “There’s a clear appetite for the industry to come together and create conversations around the future of the industry – in fact, we sold out this year’s event faster than ever before.”
