Monte Carlo #67 - Sarah Wilson: What Buyers Actually Want From Reinsurers

Sarah Wilson, Head of Outwards Reinsurance at MS Amlin, would rather know who'll still be on her panel when it isn't. Recorded in Monte Carlo in heat that could poach an egg, this is a cedent's case for picking reinsurance partners for the full cycle, not just the 1/1 renewals.

WHAT YOU'LL LEARN:

• Why a cedent in a soft market still picks reinsurers for the long haul rather than the cheapest line
• What sets reinsurers apart now that strong security is something most panels already have
• How MS Amlin looks across panels and classes when most of its portfolio renews at 1/1
• Why the industry needs to redesign first jobs for young talent, not remove them, as AI takes over the grunt work
• Where outwards teams want their time back so they can spend it on insight instead of assembly
