In the search for yield, European insurers are considering how much liquidity to have in their portfolios. In order to be competitive, they are investing in European and global credit. Insurance experts from northern Europe weigh up the diversification benefits of doing so against the currency risk hedging costs in the Insurance Asset Management Bespoke report.

The report includes a case study on downside risk management strategies for equity investments and an expert discussion on the impact on investment strategies of the regulatory imperatives around ESG and climate change.
