Convergent Capital: Insurance, Pensions, and Markets in a New Era

Against the backdrop of expanding ageing populations and the growing demand for inclusive financial solutions, insurers and pension funds are playing an increasingly critical role as systemic allocators of long-term capital. Today, insurers and pension funds are channeling trillions of dollars into long-duration investments, reshaping markets in ways that were once the sole domain of traditional capital markets.

This session brings together global leaders from insurance, pensions, markets, and policy to explore how these sectors are converging and what it means for the future of capital allocation, retirement security, and risk management.

Discussions will examine how technology and insurtech innovations are reshaping distribution, creating new investment corridors, and ensuring resilience, while also addressing the pressing societal challenge of financing ageing populations and improving financial health worldwide.
