Investment Objective
Insurance linked securities (ILS) are a good diversifying tool as their returns depend mainly on the occurrence of natural catastrophes rather than economic factors. A diversified ILS portfolio is key to investors as the loss distribution profile of an ILS (high severity, low frequency) means a natural catastrophe can trigger a total loss of the principal on any single asset.
AXA IM believe successful investments in ILS can be achieved through careful remodeling of each transaction combined with a thorough analysis of the market, as well as the transaction's structure.
