About
The numbers speak for themselves: run-off liabilities are now estimated at nearly $300 billion and may soon rise to $600 billion. With more and more insurers making the decision to discontinue business using run-off as their exit strategy, failure to grasp the attendant challenges can mean disaster for an insurer or run-off company. To succeed in this new environment, you need the most up-to-date information on innovative approaches and targeted techniques.
American Conference Institute has specifically tailored this 3rd International Advanced Forum on Run-Off and Commutations to provide you with current strategies for handling today's challenging run-off issues.
