Highlights

RE-LIVE THE SINGAPORE CONFERENCE EXPERIENCE

PARIMA held our first in-person Conferences since 2019 in Singapore last November at Suntec City Convention Centre. We welcomed more than 30 speakers back on the physical stage, leading 12 educational sessions on issues important to risk managers in Singapore.

Raising the Profile of Risk Management in India

Risks in APAC are as diverse as its people, geography, language and culture. PARIMA is heading to Mumbai to put a spotlight on the needs of risk managers in India and to give them the mic to voice their ideas.

Hear from our PARIMA India Board Members, Soni Srivastava from Deutsche Bank and Nitin Nair from RPG Group on why they believe that it is important to have an opportunity for the risk & insurance community in India to gather and meet like-minded individuals.

Join us on 16 June as we gather the risk community in India and exchange best practices to remain resilient in the face of permacrisis.

“パーマクライシス”－終わりの見えない危機－の時代への適応
気候変動、インフレの継続、債務危機から地政学的な緊張に至るまで、事業リスクはますます相互の関連性を強め、サプライチェーンの混乱などがもたらす影響がいっそう増大する可能性があります。

世界経済フォーラムとマーシュが実施した最新のエグゼクティブ向けの意識調査によると、戦略的資源の高騰をめぐる地経学的対立と地政学的争いは、日本のビジネスリーダーが挙げた最大のリスクであり、地政学的リスクがいつまで継続するのか見通しも立っていない状況です。

企業は、どのように地政学リスクの影響を理解し、適切なリスク軽減策を策定し、さらなる成長を実現し続けることができるのでしょうか。本セッションでは、さまざまな視点で地政学リスクへの備えについて議論してまいります。

* This session will be held in Japanese.

Adapting to the Era of “Permacrisis”
From climate change, sustained inflation, debt crisis to geopolitical tension, the business risks are becoming increasing interconnected in ways that can amplify the impacts such as supply chain disruptions.

According to most recent Executive Opinion Survey conducted by World Economic Forum and Marsh, geo-economic confrontation and geo-political contestation of strategic resources due to inflation are the top risks cited by Japan business leaders, and there is no certainty on the duration of the impacts resulted from geopolitical risks.

How can companies understand the impacts of geopolitical risks, formulate appropriate risk mitigation actions, and continue to achieve further growth? This session will share and discuss geopolitical risk preparedness from diverse perspectives.

People Risk　～サーベイからひも解く日本企業とグローバルの認識ギャップ～
世界を取り巻く気候変動や経済環境の急激な変容に伴い、企業は多くのリスクにさらされている。万が一企業が水災や火災等に罹災した際、いかに早く企業活動を再開するかは大変重要な課題となってきている。事業の早期再開には、技術的な専門性を有し、スピーディーに対処できる災害復旧会社とのパートナーシップが有益であることを、具体的な事例を挙げながら紹介する

People Risk: Survey Reveals Perception Gap between Japanese and Global Companies
Following the pandemic, there is a growing global focus on “People Risk,” which is the risk associated with employees.

Globally, people risk is recognized by management as having an impact on business continuity and stability, corporate reputation, and revenue growth. In Japan, it is expected to receive more attention as awareness of “human capital management” grows.

Mercer Marsh Benefits has conducted “People Risk Awareness Surveys” for HR and Risk Management professionals globally since 2021, and this year we conducted a similar survey in Japan for the first time.

In this session, we will present the key findings of the survey in Japan and compare them to the results in Europe, the U.S., and Asia.

Facing Climate Change with Risk Financing & Data Analytics
In view of possible climate change, we are required to revisit risk management strategy to cope with changes.

Reinsurance market has been contributing to risk management for corporates as well as individuals indirectly as a global balancer of the risks. Capital market solution has been developed since 90’s as a supplement of those global efforts. On a back of influx of capital into alternative investment markets, ILS has been in the spotlight.

This session will present how risk managers can utilise ILS in face of changes and the future possibilities ILS/capital market contribution to mitigate protection gap that has been on an increase in APAC region through introducing examples that global corporate taking advantage of those capital market instruments (ie cat bond). It will also discuss how risk managers can utilise data and analytics to take control of the

リスクファイナンスとデータアナリティクスで気候変動に立ち向かう
気候変動を踏まえ、企業は今後どのようなリスクマネジメントを行うか再考する必要があります。

再保険市場は、グローバルなリスク分散を行う事で企業や個人のリスクマネジメントを間接的にサポートしてきました。資本市場をより直接的に活用したリスク分散は、そのような再保険市場の補完的な役割で成長を遂げた背景があります。 代替投資市場の成長に伴う資本流入を背景に、保険リンク証券（ILS)市場は今注目をあつめています。

本セッションでは、上述の変化を踏まえた変化の中でリスクマネジャーがILSをどのように活用できるのか、 APAC地域で課題とされるプロテクションギャップに対するソリューションとして果たせる役割など、企業が発行するキャットボンド等の具体例を交えながら紹介いたします。また、リスクマネジャーがデータアナリティクスをどのように活用し、気候変動の影響の激化がもたらす課題をコントロールできるかについても議論します。

自然災害との共存：BCPを理解する
日本の企業は、自然災害の頻発に直面している。自然災害との共存せざるを得なくなった日本企業はオールハザードのBCPを導入し、リスクコントロールとリスクファイナンスの適切なバランスを模索する必要に迫られている。本セッションでは、保険会社系リスクコンサルティング会社の立場から、こうしたリスクの最新動向を紹介するとともに、情報収集、情報共有、危機管理対応の意思決定など、事前・事後のリスク対策、特に有事対策について具体的に解説する。

Co-existing with Natural Disasters: Understanding the BCP Spectrum
In addition to rising volatility in the business landscape, corporations in Japan sit on top of a natural disaster hotspot. Co-existing with calamities presses businesses to adopt an all-hazards BCP, and find the proper balance between risk control and risk financing. In this session, from the perspective of a risk consulting company affiliated with an insurance company, the latest trends in these risks will be introduced, and pre and post risk control measures – especially contingency control measures, will be explained in detail, involving information gathering, information sharing and decision-making crisis management responses.

Walking the Tightrope on Transition Planning Amidst ESG Volatility
The world is faced with a difficult decision around the world economy recovery post the Corona virus shutdown. This difficulty relates to managing emissions to meet COP 26 targets of saving the planet. It’s a fine balance between keeping the lights on, feeding the ever-growing world population, and allowing a full transition to renewables. The Russia / Ukraine war, along with increases in the cost of energy, challenged most (if not all) of COP26 targets and widened the gap between reducing of our addiction to oil / coal and transitioning to renewables. However, a balance could be achieved within this transition for a number of years until we can fully rely on renewables – Natural Gas!

ESGボラティリティの複雑な世界での排出コストの管理 – ガスを活用した転換に焦点を当てて –
新型コロナウイルスの影響が収束に向かう中での世界経済の回復に関して、世界は難しい決断を迫られています。これは、COP26の目標を達成するための排出削減をどうマネジメントしていくかに関連しており、急増する世界人口を支えつつ電力供給を維持しながらも、完全に再生可能エネルギーへの転換を許容するという微妙なバランスが求められています。ロシアとウクライナの戦争やエネルギーコストの上昇などがCOP26の目標のほとんどに影響を与え、石油や石炭への依存を減少させることと再生可能エネルギーへの転換を推進することの間にある溝を広げることになりました。ただし、この転換の中でバランスを取り、再生可能エネルギーに我々の軸足を置けるようになるまでの間は、天然ガスの活用が有効な手段になるかもしれません。

Navigating the Corporate Asset Class Shift
The global economy is increasingly driven by innovation and intangible assets. Over the past 25 years, intangibles have grown exponentially by around 11% per annum to $74 trillion in 2021 and it’s expected the value will reach $1 quadrillion by 2050.

With this, intangible assets are progressively becoming the dominant share of enterprise’ value today and as such, it’s essential companies identify and understand the exposures this brings, explore ways to protect themselves against those exposures and furthermore, realize the full potential value of their intellectual property to utilize it for growth.

企業の資産クラスの移転をナビゲートする
世界経済は、イノベーションと無形資産によってますます牽引されています。過去25年間で、無形資産は年率約11%で飛躍的に成長、2021年には74兆ドルに達し、2050年にはその価値は1000兆ドルに達すると予想されています1。

このように、無形資産は今日、企業価値の大半を占めるようになりつつあります。そのため、企業は、無形資産がもたらすリスクを特定・理解し、そのリスクから身を守る方法を模索し、さらに、知的財産の潜在的価値を最大限に発揮して成長につなげることが不可欠になります。

Flexible as a Bamboo in the Middle of an Economic & Geopolitical Storm

Businesses globally face immense pressure to maintain agility as they stride a step ahead of a turbulent economic and geopolitical landscape. Emphasis on issues such as ESG, cyber risk, rapid inflation, digital disruption, etc. have taken the stage in board rooms. In addition, an exceptionally busy political calendar in 2024, the ongoing Russo-Ukrainian war and the war between Israel and Hamas will keep geopolitical risks elevated for the foreseeable future. How can corporations fortify their strategies to withstand and grow despite the successive blows of geopolitical instability and a volatile economic forecast?
