Effectively managing casualty exposures has become more complex over time. While brokers, risk managers, claims professionals and underwriters have new tools at their disposal to understand and manage this area of risk, the complexities of our globally interconnected business model and a more sophisticated plaintiff bar have raised the stakes for everyone involved. Advisen's Casualty Insights Conference puts the industry leaders in this arena in a forum together with the practitioners. Expect to gain an expanded viewpoint and an arsenal of knowledge and strategies gleaned from the experiences and comments of those who steer the casualty marketplace.

Rates continue to inch higher in many lines of business, reversing an eight-year trend of falling premiums. While insurance executives hail the increases, which they claim are essential to the financial health of property & casualty insurers, the industry remains very well capitalized, making a repeat of the skyrocketing premiums seen in the 2001-2003 hard market unlikely.

 

Join Starr Companies’ Chuck Dangelo, Marsh’s Peter Zaffino, and Advisen’s Dave Bradford as they examine the forces shaping the P&C insurance marketplace. This live webcast, sponsored by Starr Companies, also will feature a one-on-one discussion with Chairman & CEO of Starr Insurance Holdings, Inc. Maurice “Hank” Greenberg as he shares his insights into the challenges and opportunities facing insurers, brokers and risk managers.Chairman & CEO of Starr Insurance Holdings, Inc.

RIMS Benchmark Book / The Live Event was a showcase of the pertinent findings of the Annual RIMS Benchmark Book combined with live commentary from industry leaders.

 

The RIMS Benchmark Book features the coverage purchasing patterns associated with 15 industries and 6 coverage lines. The RIMS Benchmark Book is the "What?" and reports the cost of risk stats and premiums, limits and retention in a "How do I compare?" perspective.

 

This Live Event explored the "Why?" and sought to address anomalies presented by the Book's data trends. Presented as insider views and opinions from behind-the-scenes, buyers (and their brokers) gained a perspective that is intentionally broader and will likely influence how you adjust your risk appetite.

 

Advisen's ADVx Insurance Premium Index shows the overall direction of the insurance market. But what happens when buyers peel back the layers of that onion to discern where the influences of industry and coverage type take over?
