Pool Re will host the inaugural Congress for National Terrorism Reinsurance Pools on Wednesday, Oct. 28 – Friday, Oct. 30, at the Royal Institution in London. Worldwide leaders of national terrorism reinsurance pools will gather to discuss the operational factors affecting the provision of terrorism risk reinsurance.

The aim of the three-day event is to drive the debate on issues affecting worldwide terrorism reinsurance and the role of governments in the provision of terrorism reinsurance. A forum will be provided by the congress to share expertise and best practice, and to discuss closer international collaboration in response to new and evolving terrorist threats. Attendees will include the terrorism reinsurance pools of 14 countries, in addition to representation from the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD). Speakers at the event will include senior political figures, insurance industry professionals and members of the security services.
