Reinsurance Rendez-vous

Twenty-five hundred professionals from the reinsurance, insurance and broker communities converge yearly at the Reinsurance Rendez-vous to discuss matters of top concern to the market. The event not only marks the start of the annual negotiation process before the renewal of reinsurance treaties, but it fosters high-level networking that often leads to strategic alliances.

PwC works closely with the industry and understands the issues it faces. Our thought leadership and discussion themes this year are very much about the challenges and future of the industry.

We're delighted that Martin Sullivan (Deputy Chairman of Willis Group and Chairman and CEO of Willis Global Solutions) joins us as guest speaker at the PwC Breakfast Briefing. He presents 'Over capitalisation and soft markets: A broker's view to over 200 delegates. View presentation.

Thanks also to our panel members at the PwC 'Realising value from European Run-off' seminar, Paul Corver (Randall & Quilter), Daniel Maranger (Munich Re) and Manfred Seitz (Berkshire Hathaway).
