The Singapore Reinsurers’ Association (SRA) Chair, Marc Haushofer said “The SRA Executive Committee (EXCO) had deliberated intensely over the messaging that would appropriately encapsulate the state of the industry today, which had over the past few months displayed firm resolve and discipline to effect a much-welcomed rebound after enduring years of weak performance and soft market conditions.”

Singapore:

The Singapore Reinsurers’ Association (SRA) has announced that the 4-day 19th Singapore International Reinsurance Conference (SIRC) with the theme,‘(RE)INSURANCE RESET’, will be held from 30 October to 2 November 2023.

This will be an all in-person event and will be held as usual on Level 3 of Sands Expo & Convention Centre, Marina Bay Sands Singapore.

Jean-Jacques Henchoz, CEO of Hannover Re will be the keynote speaker on the opening day of the conference.

The SRA Chair, Marc Haushofer said “The SRA Executive Committee (EXCO) had deliberated intensely over the messaging that would appropriately encapsulate the state of the industry today, which had over the past few months displayed firm resolve and discipline to effect a much-welcomed rebound after enduring years of weak performance and soft market conditions.”

“The EXCO eventually decided that the theme for the 19th SIRC 2023 will simply be ‘(RE)INSURANCE RESET’, which is intentionally vague but presents sufficient scope to address the key challenges for the (re)insurance industry to demonstrate its continued relevance and ensure resiliency amidst the prevailing uncertain and volatile risk landscape epitomised by spiralling inflation, rising interest rates, economic malaise, geopolitical tensions, and increasingly frequent and costly climate disasters,” added SRA Executive Director, Jeffrey Yeo.

Among the industry stalwarts that have already committed their support are Swiss Re, which is confirmed as Lead Partner; S&P Global Ratings as SweetSpot Partner; Lloyd’s as Bilateral Meeting Room Partner; MS Amlin as Conference Bag Partner; Allianz Re, AXA XL, Gallagher Re, Guy Carpenter, Howden Specialty and Verisk as Gold Partners; Munich Re as Technology Partner; as well as J.B. Boda, Korean Re and Odyssey Re as Silver Partners.

The registrations for the event will open from 9:00am SGT on the 19th SIRC website at https://www.sirc.com.sg.

The last year event drew a record attendance of over 2,200 delegates from 62 countries.
