The Impact of Artificial Intelligence (AI) on Reinsurance

Programme Highlights

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is reshaping the insurance industry, and reinsurance, with its complex risks and data-driven decisions, is uniquely impacted. The Impact of Artificial Intelligence (AI) on Reinsurance course is a focused 3-hour virtual programme designed to help reinsurance professionals understand how AI is transforming underwriting, pricing, claims, portfolio management, and strategic decision-making.

This programme demystifies AI, Machine Learning, and Generative AI in clear, non-technical terms, highlighting how they differ from traditional actuarial models and why reinsurance presents both significant opportunities and distinct challenges, particularly in long-tail and catastrophe exposures.

Participants will explore practical AI applications across the reinsurance value chain — from treaty pricing, exposure and accumulation management, catastrophe modelling, claims triage, reserving support, fraud detection, and capital optimisation.

Importantly, this programme also addresses the risks and governance challenges of AI adoption, including model bias, explainability, regulatory expectations, and the need for strong human oversight.

The session concludes with a forward-looking discussion on how AI may reshape reinsurer–cedant relationships, broking dynamics, and professional roles — reinforcing that AI is a decision-support tool that must be applied with sound judgment, discipline, and accountability.
