WINDSOR, Conn., May 18, 2016—A C-suite executive panel on how to thrive in a changed marketplace leads the agenda at the 2016 Caribbean Insurance Conference, taking place June 5 – June 7, 2016 in the Bahamas.
The panel, titled “Keeping Pace with Global Industry Changes” will feature Patrick Ward, Group president and CEO, Bahamas First Holdings Ltd.; David Sloan, president and CEO, Aon; and Veronica Scotti, president and CEO, Canada, Swiss Re. James W. Kerley, chief membership officer, LIMRA and LOMA will moderate the session.
“There are solid opportunities and potential for growth in the Caribbean insurance market,” said Ian Watts, senior vice president and managing director, International Operations, LIMRA, LOMA and LL Global Inc. “Our goal is to help executives understand the current environment, identify the best opportunities, and capitalize on them going forward.”
Reflecting the conference theme Industry Evolution: Operating in the New Normal, one session will be devoted to simulating a coordinated response to a data breach. The exercise is designed to illustrate who to involve internally and externally, and how to properly communicate to customers and appropriate regulatory agencies. Leading this session will be Tim Stapleton, vice president, cyber insurance product manager, Chubb Insurance Company; Bill Hardin, vice president, Charles River Associates; and Sian Schafle, Partner, Lewis Brisbrois Bisgaard & Smith LLP.
