The 2023 Rendez-Vous de Septembre – in its 65th year – is the annual gathering of the reinsurance market in Monte Carlo.
I had a very busy few days in Monte Carlo attending events organized by IRLA, PwC, Guy Carpenter, and Gallagher – just to name a few. I enjoyed meeting with a number of our members and of course sharing the benefit of AIRROC with those that are potential members. I also connected with several insurance trade associations including ABIR (Association of Bermuda Insurers and Reinsurers), the ICMIF (International Cooperative and Mutual Insurance Federation), and the Hellenic Association of Insurance Companies. So interesting to learn more about how they serve their memberships.
This is the second year that AIRROC has had a formal presence at the event and this year hosted, along with co-sponsoring members and corporate partners, a reception on September 12th at Avenue 31. The venue was centrally located on the Avenue de Princesse Grace with amazing views of the Mediterranean Sea.
AIRROC is incredibly proud and thankful to our co-hosts for the success of our Avenue 31 reception. It was fantastic to see so many of our legacy colleagues, friends and familiar faces that dropped by to enjoy the food, drinks, and invigorating conversations. No question that part of the buzz surrounding the Rendez-Vous is the enhanced recognition of the legacy sector as an effective capital management tool and the interest in legacy solutions is at an all-time high.
AIRROC is already looking ahead to the 2024 Monte Carlo Rendez-Vous de Septembre with fresh networking and connection ideas, and of course fun, in store. Thanks to all of our co-hosts and to everyone that attended.
