WINDSOR, Conn., September 12, 2017—LIMRA is pleased to announce three respected industry leaders will participate in a CEO panel at the 2017 LIMRA Annual Conference, which is being held on October 22-24 in National Harbor, Maryland.

“Technology has materially changed how consumers research and purchase life insurance, annuities and other financial services products. As an industry, it’s important that we understand the new consumer imperative and how it impacts strategies around distribution, product design and marketing,” said Robert Kerzner, president and CEO, LIMRA, LOMA, and LL Global. “Each of these CEOs bring valuable and unique perspectives that will offer practical solutions to help bridge the gap between consumer expectations and business capabilities.”

The panel discussion will be moderated by Kerzner. Panelists include:

Thomas Marra, FSA, MAAA, chairman, president and chief executive officer, Symetra Financial Corporation
Ted Mathas, chairman and chief executive officer, New York Life Insurance Company
Robert L. Reynolds, president and chief executive officer, Putnam Investments and Great-West Financial

The 2017 LIMRA Annual Conference also features John Boehner, former speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives and John Brennan, former CIA director as general session speakers. Other sessions will address opportunities and strategies to better engage consumers through technology and insurtech, marketing and distribution, and big data and data analytics.

The LIMRA Annual Conference is one of the largest gatherings of executives representing all sectors of the financial services industry. The annual conference agenda is designed to offer attendees insights into the latest industry trends that could foretell future opportunities and solutions in the U.S. and worldwide.
