In this episode of the InsuranceAUM.com Podcast, host Stewart Foley, CFA, sits down with Max Davies, CFA, Insurance Strategist in the Client Group at Wellington Management, to explore the dynamic and diverse Asian insurance market. Based in Hong Kong, Max shares his insights into the region’s rapid growth, regulatory evolution, and investment trends, highlighting the unique challenges and opportunities insurers face compared to their counterparts in Europe and the US.
The discussion dives into topics such as the adoption of risk-based capital regimes that resemble Solvency II, the implications of limited domestic capital markets, and the growing demand for offshore investments. Max also explores the region's increasing interest in private assets, driven by yield-seeking strategies, and how insurers are balancing ESG considerations with the economic realities of their local markets. With Asia poised for significant change and growth, this episode offers insurance investment professionals a comprehensive look into one of the industry’s most dynamic regions.
