EVENT INFORMATION

Whilst Europe continues to recover from the economic turmoil that 2020 brought, German, Swiss, and Austrian based insurers need to re-examine how to fittingly advance their investment strategies, incorporate new asset classes - private market securities, ESG, and real assets - and adapt middle and back office investment operations for a new cycle of economic recovery and opportunity.

The Insurance Investor Virtual | DACH 2021 Summit is an event designed in collaboration with insurers from the DACH region. On the 11^th, 12^th & 26^th May 2021, we will bring together the community of German, Swiss, and Austrian based insurance professionals to scrutinise investment, asset allocation, investment operations, risk, cash management and economic issues that will dictate the future direction of investment in both the DACH region and global economy.

Während sich Europa weiterhin von den wirtschaftlichen Turbulenzen des Jahres 2020 erholt, müssen die in Deutschland, der Schweiz und Österreich ansässigen Versicherer erneut prüfen, wie sie ihre Anlagestrategien angemessen weiterentwickeln, neue Anlageklassen (Wertpapiere des Privatmarktes, ESG und Sachwerte) einbeziehen und die Anlageoperationen im mittleren und hinteren Bereich für einen neuen Zyklus wirtschaftlicher Erholung und Chancen anpassen können.

Das Versicherungsanleger-Virtual-DACH-2021-Gipfeltreffen ist eine Veranstaltung, die in Zusammenarbeit mit Versicherern aus der DACH-Region entworfen wurde. Am 11, 12 und 26 Mai 2021 werden wir die Gemeinschaft der in Deutschland, der Schweiz und Österreich ansässigen Versicherungsexperten zusammenbringen, um Anlagen, Asset-Allokation, Anlageoperationen, Risiken, Cash-Management und wirtschaftliche Fragen zu erörtern, die die zukünftige Ausrichtung von Anlagen sowohl in der DACH-Region als auch in der Weltwirtschaft bestimmen werden.
