Video from Artemis London 2022. Session 6: London as cat bond & ILS hub

The sixth session at our Artemis London 2022 conference featured a panel discussion on the potential for London to build-out an increasingly vibrant hub for catastrophe bond and insurance-linked securities (ILS) activity.

This video is of the sixth 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 from around the world 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.

This sixth video from the event features a panel discussion on the subject of London as a hub for catastrophe bonds and insurance-linked securities (ILS).

The panel discussion was moderated by Des Potter, Special Advisor, Lloyd’s. He was joined by: Lisa Leaman, Head of Division, London Markets, Prudential Regulation Authority, Bank of England; Shireen Gammoh, Partner, Head of Strategic & Financial Analytics, Gallagher Re; and Philipp Kusche, Global Head of ILS & Capital Solutions, TigerRisk Capital Markets & Advisory.

The discussion focused on what is different about London’s proposition, when it comes to catastrophe bonds and insurance-linked securities (ILS).

It also covered opportunities the ILS market may be able to generate, through closer and more direct trading with London based cedents and the Lloyd’s marketplace.
