The chief executive of Hong Kong-based Peak Re, Franz Josef Hahn, has become a member of The Geneva Association, an international think tank for strategically important insurance and risk management issues.
Founded in 1973, the Association has the mission to develop and promote a wider understanding on the unique role and importance of insurance in economies and for societies through publications, conferences and active discourse with policymakers, regulators and other key constituents. Its membership is made up of leaders of top (re)insurance companies around the world.
“I am excited about supporting The Geneva Association as a member. Its distinct mission resonates well with Peak Re’s commitment to narrowing protection gaps, especially in the developing and emerging markets of Asia,” said Mr Hahn.
“I look forward to offering my perspective derived from my 30 years in the region and leading one of the fastest growing global reinsurance firms. The Geneva Association is an ideal platform to raise awareness among insurance leaders and key political decision-makers from around the world as well as to combine research with impact, for the benefit of the under-served and un-served segments of the population,” added Mr Hahn.
