Supporting professional development and knowledge sharing across Cayman's reinsurance sector remains a key priority for the Cayman International Reinsurance Companies Association (CIRCA). The association recently continued its Reinsurance Insights series with Reinsurance in Motion: Financing, Modelling and Managing Risk in a Changing World, bringing together reinsurance professionals to examine evolving approaches to financing, modelling and risk management.
Held at Camana Bay Cinema, the event was sponsored by Conyers and Lewis & Ellis and featured presentations examining key issues in financing, modelling and risk management.
Derek Stenson and Tommy Tuohy, partners at Conyers, presented Reinsurance Financing, examining the practical considerations involved in structuring financing transactions for Cayman reinsurers, including the importance of aligning commercial objectives, regulatory requirements, transaction timelines and legal structures early in the process.
Matt Stahl, vice president and principal at Lewis & Ellis, presented Reinsurance in a Non-Stationary World: Rethinking Models, Reserves and Risk, examining how changing risk environments are challenging traditional modelling and reserving assumptions and increasing the importance of combining robust analytical tools with sound judgment and governance.
"Professional development is a core part of CIRCA's mission, and the Reinsurance Insights series provides an opportunity for our members and the wider reinsurance community to learn from industry experts and share knowledge," said Stephen Conway, vice chair of CIRCA's Social & Outreach Committee. "As the industry continues to evolve, these discussions help keep Cayman informed, connected and engaged.
