3rd Conference on Global Insurance Supervision Fit for Global Thinking?9 – 10 September 2014Frankfurt, Germany
Dear Participant,
The International Center for Insurance Regulation (ICIR) and the European Insurance and Occupational
Pensions Authority (EIOPA) are glad to welcome you to this year’s Conference on Global Insurance
Supervision, which is taking place for the third time in the “regulatory capital”, Frankfurt / Main.
We are glad to announce that this year’s conference is organized jointly with the Center for the Study of
Insurance Regulation, St. John’s University and The World Bank to further promote the conference’s global
setting.
Top representatives from major (re)insurance groups, regulators and supervisors from around the globe
and renowned academics will debate the hot spots of international insurance supervision, focusing on
global trends in risk-based supervision and the upcoming challenges in the implementation of global
standards. You are invited to also discuss the regulatory aspects of doing business in emerging markets and
the challenges supervision is facing nowadays, in which the consumer’s voice plays a crucial role.
The GIS conference attracted 140 attendees for one and a half days of presentations, panel debates, break-
out sessions and networking opportunities. We aim to provide a unique platform for the exchange of ideas
and for discussions among supervisors, industry leaders and academicians on strategic regulatory issues in
the insurance sector.
We are confident that this year’s conference will build on the success of last year and will assist all in the
public and private sector and in the academia to move forward to structuring a global insurance regulatory
framework with a higher standard. We also offer all participants an excellent opportunity to network
throughout the conference.
We wish you a pleasant and interesting conference.
