At the 2025 @CasualtyActuarialSociety Reinsurance Seminar, Samir Shah spoke about the rise of casualty insurance-linked securities (ILS) — and how it can serve as the new tool of corporate finance for (re)insurers, alongside equity and debt.
He answered the question that's stumped many: "What about the tail risk?"
It's a question that's prevented many from seeing how securitization can increase returns, reduce risk, and provide flexible capital to manage fluctuating needs in soft and hard markets.

As a tool of corporate finance, insurance securitization has the potential to fundamentally recapitalize the global insurance industry at trillion-dollar scale, just as securitization did for the credit markets.
