ILS is a modern asset class that gives investors access to insurance risk premium by covering events that result from natural or human accidents.

With little correlation to more conventional asset classes, ILS gives investors predicted risk-adjusted returns.

ILS strategies often make investments in one or more insurance-linked securities, with catastrophe bonds being the most well-known type.

Nicolas Faller, Co-CEO asset management and head of institutional clients at UBP, commented on the new partnership: “At UBP we pride ourselves in providing our clients with the best possible expertise, products and services. In Securis, we have found the ideal partner in the ILS space, allowing us to enhance our offering beyond our existing capabilities and better meet our clients’ needs.
