Around 150 life and annuity professionals are set to congregate in Bermuda later this month.

The Bermuda International Long Term Insurers and Reinsurers (BILTIR) is to host its second annual life and annuity conference at the Fairmont Southampton on Tuesday, September 29.

Industry chiefs from Europe and North America will join Bermuda-based executives for the meeting.

This year’s conference will focus on the EU Solvency II regulations, which will come in to force next year and Bermuda’s ongoing work to comply with the new rules.

Other highlights include a presentation by the president of the Society of Actuaries, which has more than 25,000 members in 78 countries.

Special sessions will also look at “the future of living longer” and panel discussions featuring industry leaders.

BILTIR was set up four years ago to serve as an advocate for the long-term insurance industry.
