This keynote speech took place at the Artemis ILS Asia 2023 conference in Singapore on July 13th. This session featured Stefan Kräuchi and Tim Yip of Hong Kong based ILS investment manager and advisory firm ILS Advisers, which is part of the HSZ Group, discussing the Asian ILS investor landscape from their vantage point of being the only asset manager with a focus on the asset class that is located in the region. The pair discussed some of the characteristics of ILS investors in the Asia region, as well as the ILS opportunities to invest in insurance risk originated from that part of the world. They also explored the insurance and reinsurance landscape and why, despite having some of the largest reinsurers based there, Asian companies are so far not as advanced in managing ILS capacity themselves. In addition, the ILS Advisers duo explored reasons for ILS having a slower uptake in Asia and what holds back more Asian insurance risk making it into the ILS market.
