London, 30^th January 2025 – Life Risk News is delighted to announce registration is now open for the Life ILS Conference 2025, the leading forum for capital markets, business and academia participants in the longevity and mortality markets.

Taking place on Tuesday, 20^th May, 2025 at the offices of EY in London’s Canary Wharf district, the Life ILS Conference 2025 will be the event’s sixth edition, and, similar to recent years, will feature a combination of panel sessions and presentations that address the challenges and opportunities facing the life insurance-linked alternative credit, longevity and mortality risk transfer and secondary life markets.

“The longevity and mortality markets are busier than they have ever been, and we are seeing new companies and organisations coming into the space to participate. This year’s agenda will reflect the top-of-mind issues for all participants,” said Chris Wells, Managing Editor at Life Risk News and Executive Director at ELSA.

“Additionally, we have carved out significant opportunities for networking, which is of increasing value to those in this industry as the individual silos that comprise it are becoming more closely intertwined than ever before,” added Wells.

Previous iterations of the Life ILS Conference have covered topics such as demand dynamics in pension risk transfer, life settlements and life ILS, structuring considerations in life and annuity sidecars and funded reinsurance transactions, insights into macro and micro longevity pricing, life expectancy, and excess mortality, and the impact of changes in healthcare provision on mortality risk.

Life Risk News is in the process of finalising the conference agenda but still welcomes speaking and presenting submissions from interested parties. A handful of sponsorship opportunities remain – visit https://lifeils.london/ to contact us.

Super early bird tickets for the Life ILS Conference 2025 cost £295 + VAT until Friday, 28^th February, a 25% discount on the regular price of £395 + VAT.
