Artemis Live: Interview with Frank Majors, Nephila Capital

For the second Artemis Live audio and video interview I was delighted to speak with Frank Majors, co-CEO and President of Nephila Holdings, and a Director of insurance-linked securities (ILS) fund manager Nephila Capital.

All of our Artemis Live video interviews can be accessed directly from our YouTube Channel and we have more interesting discussions with leaders of the ILS and reinsurance industry to come over the next few weeks.

Frank Majors of Nephila Capital kindly spared us some of his time to discuss the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, as well as his views on how this unprecedented global event will impact insurance-linked securities (ILS), reinsurance and risk transfer in general.

Majors provided us with unique insights into how the largest ILS fund manager Nephila Capital sees the state of the ILS market and its prospects at this time, as well as how it has been affected by the uncertainty driven by the pandemic.

Majors gave a candid interview and shared his experienced views on how ILS and reinsurance as an industry can move forwards from here.

Discussing the need for efficiency within risk transfer in general, something that has certainly been heightened by the current pandemic crisis, Majors explained that there is work to be done that can ultimately help to make insurance and reinsurance more efficient, effective and competitively priced.

The full video interview is embedded below, but can also be viewed in full over on our YouTube channel.

We will continue to bring you these interviews with leaders of the ILS and reinsurance industry on an ad-hoc basis, as and when our time and that of our contacts allow. All of our Artemis Live video interviews can be accessed directly from our YouTube Channel.

But we’d love to hear from you if you have an interesting viewpoint to bring to us and we’re also offering sponsorship opportunities for our broadcasts, one-off webinars and virtual events including roundtables, all with a focus on reinsurance, ILS and the efficiency of risk transfer. Please get in touch to discuss.
