I’m delighted to be judging the @Insurance Investor | European Awards 2024, and also pleased to be joining the European Advisory Board for 2024 where I will be sharing insights on current themes, risks, and opportunities facing investment, risk and treasury functions across insurance firms. Once the deadline passes (get your entries in!) I look forward to assessing and scoring the entries in the various categories. #IILEawards2024 #insuranceawards #insuranceinvestor #insuranceadvisoryboard #insuranceassetmanagement

A PPLI policy offers an effective way to achieve tax efficiency for this portion of their portfolios, and maintain a meaningful death benefit, without sacrificing potentially higher long-term returns. #privateplacementlifeinsurance #PPLI #taxdeferred #taxefficient #accumulatedcashvalue

As the #insuranceindustry stands on the brink of a significant regulatory shift with the NAIC’s principles-based bond guidance, the path forward for insurers is clear: incorporate the change with strategic foresight and meticulous planning.
