Alternative Risk Transfer and Insurance-Linked Securities: Trends, Challenges and New Market Opportunities

Bericht

Due to their relatively high yields and low return correlations with traditional asset classes, insurance-linked securities (ILS) are often described as an attractive investment opportunity. Yet, the investor base for ILS is largely dominated by a few specialized investment managers. The aim of this study is to analyze advantages and disadvantages, the current market development and the decision-making processes that drive the demand for this aspiring asset class. To reach this aim, we first review the existing knowledge on ILS instruments and markets, then present results of a new international survey among ILS investors and finally, based on the results of the first and second step, derive implications for the future development of ILS.
