Cat bond and ILS market seen as well-positioned despite softer reinsurance

Speakers at the Artemis London 2026 conference in September said disciplined market behavior is expected to continue as the ILS opportunity expands.

The catastrophe bond and insurance-linked securities market remains well-positioned even as reinsurance market conditions soften, according to speakers at Artemis London 2026, held September 1.

Artemis said the event drew about 220 attendees, with more than 120 organizations represented across ILS specialists, insurance and reinsurance buyers, market service providers, and investors worldwide.

The conference discussions emphasized that growth opportunities still exist, but that the market can continue to expand only if discipline is maintained among market participants and the needs of both sponsors and investors remain central.

Artemis added that the program began with a panel focused on the evolution and expansion of the London Bridge ILS platform within Lloyd’s, featuring participants including representatives from Artex Capital Solutions, Lloyd’s, Acrisure Re Corporate Advisory & Solutions, OAK Global, and Flood Re.
