Video from Artemis London 2022. Session 5: Keynote by Lloyd’s CFO Burkhard Keese

The fifth session at our Artemis London 2022 conference featured a keynote speech from the CFO and COO of Lloyd’s, Burkhard Keese, who explained Lloyd’s evolving approach to insurance-linked securities (ILS) and appetite to expand its use of ILS structures, to supply third-party capital to the market.

This video is of the fifth session from our Artemis London 2022 conference, held on September 6th, 2022 and our first insurance-linked securities (ILS) market conference ever held in the city.

More than 240 attendees enjoyed a wide-range of informative and thought-provoking sessions and networking opportunities at the conference.

Themed largely around the catastrophe bond, attendees heard from expert speakers that have been in the sector for years, as well as newcomers with ideas of how to innovate the cat bond and ILS market going forwards.

Attendees came from as far afield as New Zealand, Hawaii, Asia, North and South America, Bermuda, as well as a large European contingent, plus as you’d expect numerous London marketplace leaders in ILS and reinsurance.

This fifth video from the event features a keynote speech from the CFO and COO of Lloyd’s, Burkhard Keese.

During his keynote, Burkhard Keese explained Lloyd’s evolving approach to insurance-linked securities (ILS) and its appetite to expand its use of ILS structures to work directly with investors that want to supply third-party capital directly into the market.

“We have introduced London Bridge to open up the London market, the Lloyd’s market, to institutional investors in an easy and modern way.

“Yes it took, I would say, at least ten years longer than it took in Bermuda and Guernsey, but we are now there,” Keese explained.
