Ep 54 Taking a longer view: Eduardo Pérez de Lema CEO of Mapfre Re

Mapfre Re is a top 20 global reinsurer but it probably doesn’t have the public profile that this size should command.

Given my insurance work experience in the Spanish market I thought this was a wrong that needed righting.

Mapfre Re has many peculiarities, not least that it is one of the few reinsurers to still be part of a major global insurance group decades after it became fashionable to divest and separate insurance from reinsurance.

It also looks after the reinsurance buying for its global top 20 insurer parent.

This gives it a unique perspective of the market, which I think you will find refreshing.

Mapfre Re CEO Eduardo Perez de Lema is a frank and eloquent interviewee and in this episode he gives us an unambiguous view on what he is expecting from the 1.1 renewals and the long-term sustainable partner philosophy at the heart of his firm’s strategy.
