Swiss Re launches cat bond investment adviser, with Guatteri as CEO

Global reinsurance firm Swiss Re has set up a new insurance-linked securities (ILS) venture, launching an SEC registered investment adviser today named Swiss Re Insurance-Linked Investment Advisors Corporation (SRILIAC), which will have a focus on catastrophe bond investment management.

The move comes as the reinsurance giant continues to build-out and formalise its capabilities in managing third-party investor capital, as well as in helping investors to access reinsurance-linked returns from its books of business.

Swiss Re Insurance-Linked Investment Advisors Corporation (SRILIAC) has been launched today with an investment strategy focused on insurance-linked securities, primarily catastrophe bonds, allowing investors to access Swiss Re’s already existing abilities in catastrophe bond investing, natural catastrophe modelling and underwriting.
