Evan Glassman, CEO of New Paradigm, commented, "We are very excited about the high level of interest in the Conference coming from diverse stakeholders in this rapidly growing risk transfer sector. The New Paradigm Conference is providing a unique forum to learn and further the development of parametric risk transfer. Due to the global pandemic and the limitations on travel we are switching to a virtual format for 2020. We are confident that the virtual format will allow us to greatly expand the audience for this valuable content on November 11th and 12th."
Parametric insurance and reinsurance solutions have been around in different forms for several years. However, in recent years, the convergence of technology, data, and awareness has led to an exponential increase in interest in parametric (re)insurance solutions. Glassman continued, "We believe parametric solutions deserve their own educational forum. We are committed to bringing together all the stakeholders in the industry including: corporate and government clients, leading insurance and reinsurance brokers, (re)insurance companies, ILS funds, Index providers and other parametric platform providers that are interested in learning and sharing more about parametric risk transfer solutions. We will be hosting industry experts as well as current corporate and (re)insurance company purchasers of parametric coverage as speakers and panelists to discuss how and why this market has been growing so significantly."
