The event website features an outline of the agenda and timings for sessions and breaks during the conference, to help you in planning for the event. You can also view all of the speakers we have announced so far. The full agenda will be announced very soon.

So, on February 6th 2026 we will be back in New York to host another full-day of detailed discussions on the catastrophe bond and wider insurance-linked securities (ILS) market, with a focus on strengthening the resilience of the asset class to continue supporting global risk capital needs.
As ILS market participants look to continue developing and expanding the asset class, the industry and investors will gather again at Artemis ILS NYC 2026 to discuss the state of the market, opportunities for improvement and how to continue on a sustainable growth curve that both meets investor risk-return targets and tolerances, while also supporting the growing need for global risk capital and resilience.
Artemis ILS NYC 2026 will be a fantastic opportunity to meet and network with representatives of the majority of ILS market expert organisations, as well as sponsors, cedents, end-investors and service providers, both from across the US market and around the world.
Please register soon to join us.
ILS capital has become a critical support for global insurance and reinsurance markets and global resilience as a result.
Hence, resilience within the ILS industry and its infrastructure also needs to remain high, so it can continue playing a supportive and growing role in risk capital and reinsurance markets. The resilience of the ILS industry is exhibited through and accentuated by both the robust structures and products used to deploy capital and the discipline ILS managers and investors adopt, topics we will touch on at ILS NYC 2026.
Expect forward-looking discussions between insurance-linked securities (ILS) industry experts, delivering the quality of content you’ve learned to anticipate from us at Artemis.
As ever with our New York conference, we’ll host four main panel sessions for detailed discussion on the ILS market and the day ends with a Q&A session featuring our four expert moderators, which is always lively and insightful.
