Bermuda-based employees from member companies of the Association
of Bermuda International Companies (ABIC) and the Association of
Bermuda Insurers and Reinsurers (ABIR) will be attending RISKWORLD
2024, the annual conference of RIMS, the world’s largest risk
management community, in San Diego, California.
In addition, the Bermuda Reception at RISKWORLD 2024, presented
by the Bermuda Business Development Agency (BDA), already has close
to 200 registered attendees.
Patrick Tannock, Chairman of ABIC and CEO of AXA XL Insurance in
Bermuda, said: “The annual RIMS conference provides a key
opportunity for local delegates to advocate Bermuda’s value
proposition as a dynamic, high quality, solution-oriented
jurisdiction where capital is put to work in addressing current and
evolving complex risks. With thousands of industry stakeholders
expected to attend, it’s the perfect platform to connect with US
risk management professionals.”
John Huff, CEO, ABIR, said: "Bermuda's reinsurers represent one
third of the global property and casualty reinsurance market, and
as such, ABIR is a longtime supporter of RIMS' annual conference.
We expect our member companies to once again continue the tradition
of a strong showing of support of and attendance at RISKWORLD
2024."
This year Susan Pateras, Deputy Chair, BDA and Kendaree Burgess,
COO, BDA will attend RISKWORLD alongside representatives from the
Bermuda Monetary Authority and the Bermuda Government.
Ms. Burgess said: “We look forward to meetings with key
prospects and promoting awareness of Bermuda’s globally significant
risk and insurance market at RISKWORLD 2024.”
The Bermuda Reception will be held on Tuesday, May 7 from
5pm-7:30pm at the Sparks Gallery at 530 Sixth Ave., where hundreds
of industry leaders will enjoy C-Suite networking, Bermuda
entertainment and cocktails, and the chance to win a weekend
getaway for two to Bermuda. The BDA thanks our Platinum sponsor,
