The agenda for the most important reinsurance event in the Asia-Pacific calendar continues to grow in stature and depth with more high-profile speakers added to the stellar cast.
The Singapore Reinsurers’ Association (SRA) has revealed more senior industry leaders who will be joining the strong cast of speakers and panellists featured at this year’s 19th Singapore International Reinsurance Conference (SIRC), which will be held from 30 October to 2 November 2023 at Sands Expo & Convention Centre, Marina Bay Sands, Singapore.
The SRA had earlier announced that Hannover Re CEO Jean-Jacques Henchoz will be the industry keynote speaker on the opening day of the conference, which will focus on the theme, ‘(Re)insurance Reset’.
“We are very pleased to have on board Swiss Re CEO of P&C reinsurance Urs Baertschi and AXA XL CEO of reinsurance Renaud Guidee as panellists on the CEO roundtable, which will kick-off proceedings on the second morning,” said SRA chair Marc Haushofer.
“We are still awaiting confirmation from another senior leader to join the roundtable, which will be moderated by Gallagher Re chairman international James Vickers. I believe the session will certainly spark highly interactive and incisive discussions on the state of the industry.”

Once again Asia Insurance Review (AIR) will be the official media partner of the SIRC for 2023 – with regular updates on the progress of the work of the SIRC executive committee featuring in AIR’s various media.
“In addition to AIR magazine’s monthly SIRC countdown column that will carry news of the development of this year’s event – updates on speakers, sponsors, delegate numbers and more – the team will also be producing a newsletter each day for the duration of the conference,” said AIR CEO Sheela Suppiah.
To coincide with the start of the SIRC, the 27th Asia Insurance Industry Awards 2023 will also be held in Marina Bay Sands Expo & Convention Centre in Singapore on the evening of 30 October 2023.
The market-leading AIR eDaily will carry news of developments on a regular basis as they happen.
