Barney Schauble, Head of Labs at Nephila Advisors, part of insurance-linked securities (ILS) manager Nephila Capital, joined us for a fascinating discussion as part of our ILS NYC 2021 virtual conference. 

The discussion focused on the opportunity side of the environmental, social and governance (or ESG) question for the insurance-linked securities (ILS) market. 

Schauble discussed the importance of climate and impact related risk transfer and how this could play into the ILS market over time. 

Importantly touching on what this could mean for the insurance-linked securities (ILS) investment community going forwards, as well as for the use of ILS structures to support climate related risks, and impact focused insurance or reinsurance risk transfer.
