Business and investment sentiments seem very depressed with competition now based more on services offered in addition to the price. However, India remains in the forefront of many companies’ business agenda. 

The theme, “Finding the Ideal Reinsurance Partner” will look at what makes an ideal reinsurance partner from the different perspectives while allowing discussions on long-term relationships rather than just price-based annual contracts. The programme will also touch on the various challenges facing the Indian market as it opens up the insurance and reinsurance space and the kind of comprehensive service set-ups necessary for inward and outward reinsurance business. The stress will be on “Carpe Diem” to seize the opportunities in this dynamically changing insurance and reinsurance market faced with challenges in the disruptive innovation era, new regulatory environment, building expertise and talent and getting ready for the competition.
