The Insurance Insider London Market Conference

Date: 07 November 2019
Time: 08:15 – 16:30 (followed by networking drinks)
Location: etc.venues, 155 Bishopsgate

After a decade of market softening and steady widening of terms and conditions, recently London Market carriers have become far more active in managing the underperforming sections of their portfolios.  Lacklustre classes have been re-underwritten or dropped altogether and greater focus applied to trimming loss ratios and enhancing prospective returns.  Following the catastrophe events of the past 2 years even the most indiscriminate of ILS investors are also becoming more discerning in their allocations of capital.  Pricing and prospective returns have already responded positively in many lines. How should London carriers build on this positive momentum?  How should the leadership of the London Market be positioning itself now that so much progress has been so hard won?  However capacity remains abundant and pricing is looking more attractive, so how long can this new-found discipline last?  How should brokers and their clients best navigate this changing world?

WHY ATTEND
Join us on 7 November at The Insurance Insider London Market Conference at the best attended, most thought-provoking and strategic event for (re)insurance professionals, executives and advisers involved with the London market.  Learn the latest thinking from an unrivalled gathering of industry luminaries and make the most of extensive opportunities to network with them and all of your sector peers.

Emerging risks 2020:  the risk landscape is changing faster than ever before
Date:  Monday 25 November 2019
Time:  12:30 - 14:00
Venue:  Old Library, Lloyd's, One Lime Street, London, EC3M 7HA

Deregulation, societal change, medical, scientific and technology advancements, population growth and legal reforms globally are helping to create an environment which enables newer risks to develop and potentially new areas claims to quickly become established.  Recently, talc, glyphosate (and other pesticides), opioids, and sugar have been the subject of litigation in the USA. We are seeing a rapid increase in claims relating to climate change,  environmental liabilities and  pollution issues.  Alongside this,  new developments in the property and construction sector, set against the issues arising from some of the newer construction materials, particularly cladding, glass and eco-building techniques are a cause for concern, and supply chain risks are high on the agenda for many corporates.  Technology risks such as cyber, nanotechnology, 3 and 4 D printing, drones and the "Internet of Things" are likely to generate increasing claims levels across different classes of insurance business.  Silent cyber will continue to be a concern in the coming year as insurers act to address the regulatory concerns.  The risk landscape for 2020 and beyond is a world of both known knowns, and "unknown unknowns.
