The theme for this year's 18th Singapore International Reinsurance Conference (SIRC) will be "RE-CONNECTING ... RE-SHAPING THE FUTURE!" to reflect the positive sentiment of the industry after enduring two years of restrictions and disruptions to lives and livelihoods forced upon us by the COVID-19 outbreak, as well as the challenges that economies, businesses and people will face as they look to reclaim and recover lost time and missed opportunities.

The paper, which was authored by the SRA Technical Sub-Committee, seeks to raise awareness of Parametric Risk Transfer solutions and how they can potentially help narrow the huge protection gap in Asia.
