What is reinsurance? Why does it exist? Who uses it, and how? What are the different types, and when should they be used?

Join us for a special session that unpacks these questions and more, shining a light on arguably the most exciting part of the insurance industry.

If you don't work in the sector already, there are few things more mysterious than reinsurance. Is it really just insurance for insurance companies? How does it work, and who is it used by?

But if you who do work in reinsurance – apart from having learned that there are few things more beautiful – it's likely that you have more questions still.

Why is my team never here? What do they do in Monte Carlo? What keeps everyone busy all year round... and will reinsurance buyers, brokers and underwriters one day be replaced by AI?

This webinar, led by Ben Rose - Supercede co-founder, IIL Reinsurance Committee Chair, and co-host of The Reinsurance Podcast - will explore these topics and more in a lively, insightful session dedicated to the most fascinating (and arguably most meta) corner of the insurance industry.

The session is aimed at those working in any area within the profession who are looking to level up their industry knowledge.

Learning objectives:

  • Build fluency in core reinsurance terms and concepts
  • Tackle use cases for different types of reinsurance in practice
  • Appreciate cultural practices that keep the industry Armageddon-proof
  • Understand the reinsurance value chain and its evolution through technology and time

An interactive Q&A session will follow the discussion - please feel free to submit any questions in advance when you book online.
