Description

Over the last 10 years, the alternative reinsurance market has quadrupled in size to $97 billion with the convergence of the capital and insurance markets providing additional options for captives looking for reinsurance support. In this webinar, we look at the different forms of insurance-linked securities and how they are being used by captives and special purpose vehicles. Topics covered include:

  • Definitions and types of insurance-linked securities
  • The ILS market and participants
  • ILS as an asset class
  • Captive program structures
  • Captive and corporate uses of ILS

The webinar includes a detailed case study of Arch MI’s use of insurance-linked securities as an alternative reinsurance structure including the involvement of its protected cell company.

This webinar is suitable for any captive owner looking for additional reinsurance options as well as those interested in understanding the growth and use of insurance-linked securities.
