The 11th Annual Meeting of the Sponsoring Group Reinsurance (Förderkreis
Rückversicherung) on the topic of reinsurance was held 13 July 2018, in
Niederkassel near Cologne. Some 85 invited representatives of the (re)insurance
companies supporting the Sponsoring Group took part in the meeting, together with
guests. Offered for the fourth time as part of the Annual Meeting, the Researchers’
Corner gave eight members of academic staff at the Cologne Research Centre for
Reinsurance an opportunity to deliver a presentation on their respective individual
research projects.
Professor Materne also conducted interviews with Dr. Falk Niehörster (Climate Risk
Innovations) and Dr. Magnus Kobel (YAS.life). Dr. Niehörster reported on his
research and consulting activities in regard to maritime climate change and Dr. Kobel
on the business model of his InsurTec, YAS.life, and his general experience in the
establishment and development of start-ups.
In three sessions – each with 2-3 parallel lectures with posters – the most important
results of the scientific studies by the Cologne Research Centre for Reinsurance were
presented and discussed. The heterogeneity of the topics presented by academic
staff reflects the dovetailing of research theory with practice.
The 10th Annual Meeting of the Sponsoring Group Reinsurance was held 7 July 2017, in Niederkassel
near Köln. Some 80 representatives of the (re)insurance companies involved in the Sponsoring Group took part in the meeting, together with invited guests. Offered for the third time as part of the Annual Meeting, the Researchers’ Corner gave nine members of academic staff at the Cologne Research Centre for Reinsurance an opportunity to deliver short presentations on their individual research projects. Professor Materne also conducted interviews with Messrs Lorenz Kielwein and
Frank Baumann. Kielwein reported on the application of mathematical systems theory to processes in change management, and Baumann on his 30 years of experience at Gothaer. During each of three sessions, three short lectures with posters were held in parallel and discussed afterwards. The heterogeneity of the topics presented by the staff members reflects the dovetailing
of research theory with practice.
