The 2025 Monte Carlo Reinsurance Rendez-vous is under way, with the Principality's hotels playing host to industry briefings and meetings between market participants.
Our recap emails will help you keep up to date with coverage from the RVS, keeping to our ILS market-relevant focus, although clearly with a reinsurance leaning given the event.
Our Monte Carlo reporting began yesterday, as Swiss Re highlighted the capital efficiency that a modern and layered risk transfer architecture brings to the property and casualty insurance market.
This morning we started with an article citing Tracy Hatlestad, who during the Aon Reinsurance Solutions pre-Monte Carlo Rendez-vous briefing said that the broker believes reinsurers can still achieve their ROE targets even with a further 10% or greater softening of property catastrophe rates-on-line at January 1 2026.
The insurance-linked securities (ILS) market has reached a healthier equilibrium, but it is essential to preserve the balance between ensuring cedents are robustly supported and investors are appropriately awarded for putting their capital at risk, Luca Albertini, CEO of Leadenhall Capital Partners told Artemis in an interview.
Fitch Ratings analysts said the expectation is that property catastrophe reinsurance rates will keep softening and attachments may decline somewhat, but through this they anticipate discipline from the ILS investor base.
Maren Josefs, Credit Analyst at S&P Global, said it may be time to rethink the name alternative capital, as it was really always designed to complement the traditional reinsurance market and in recent years has become increasingly aligned and embedded in the sector.
For the insurance-linked securities (ILS) asset management sector, operational capabilities are going to be key, Dr. Urs Ramseier, CEO of Twelve Securis told Artemis in an interview just before the Monte Carlo Rendez-vous event.
Angela Yeo, Senior Director, Analytics at global ratings agency AM Best highlighted at a briefing today how investors' appetite for catastrophe bonds has helped the space continue to grow.
At global reinsurer SCOR's briefing at RVS 2025, Jean-Paul Conoscente, Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of SCOR Global P&C, said that the firm will continue to sponsor catastrophe bond issuances regardless of the market cycle.
More updates from Monte Carlo tomorrow!
