Insurance Asset Management - Industry Insight 2017 is the 2nd annual independent survey of UK and continental European insurers. This survey of 100 heads of investment, asset allocation and investment operations examines the key considerations insurers are going through to increase yield at a high level, pick suitable asset classes, manage investment risk, work with external fund managers and engage with third party fund administration and technology providers.

Representatives of insurers may request a FREE copy of the Insurance Asset Management – Industry Insights survey. Get in touch with us using your corporate email address to request your free copy.

We also support insurers' development with the The Insurance Asset Management Summit – a one-day forum for senior investment officers of predominantly UK based insurers.
