This session examines the country\u2019s credentials as a place to do business, from regulatory direction to economic resilience and the practical realities of market entry. It then turns to the question of growth, asking whether T\u00fcrkiye should be viewed primarily as a domestic expansion story and where underwriting discipline can still deliver sustainable returns.<\/p>\n<p>Particular focus is given to property catastrophe risk in the aftermath of the 2023 earthquake, exploring how loss experience, pricing adequacy and modelling assumptions have shifted. By bringing these threads together, the discussion offers a grounded view of where confidence is returning, where caution remains warranted and how reinsurers can position themselves in a market that continues to evolve under pressure.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"session_title_list\"><span class=\"ti-bookmark\"><\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"session_title_item\">MAIN STAGE SESSIONS<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"session_location themeborder\">\n<div class=\"session_location_label skin_color\">Where<\/div>\n<div class=\"session_location_content\">BALLROOM B &#8211; MAIN STAGE<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><br class=\"clear\"\/><\/div>\n<\/li>\n<li class=\"themeborder speaker-sessions \">\n<div class=\"session_content_wrapper expandable\" data-expandid=\"excerpt_15253\">\n<div class=\"session_speaker_icon\"><span class=\"ti-timer\"><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"session_content has_speaker_thumb\">\n<div class=\"session_start_time\">11:00&nbsp;&#8211;&nbsp;11:45<\/div>\n<div class=\"session_title\">\n<h6>Mapping Central Asia: Plotting the next big growth region<\/h6>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><br class=\"clear\"\/><\/div>\n<div id=\"excerpt_15253\" class=\"session_content_extend hide session_content_wrapper\">\n<div class=\"session_content has_speaker_thumb\">\n<div class=\"session_excerpt\">\n<p>Central Asia is drawing greater attention from reinsurers as its markets develop at different speeds and with varying levels of maturity. This session explores the key challenges facing engagement with cedants across the region, from data limitations and regulatory fragmentation to distribution constraints and the need to build long-term trust. It then examines how risk transfer is currently structured, where capacity remains uneven and pricing continues to adjust to shifting loss experience and economic conditions.<\/P><\/p>\n<p>Looking ahead, three potential paths are considered, setting out how the market could evolve under favourable conditions, under pressure or along a more gradual trajectory. Together these scenarios offer a practical framework for navigating a region that is still defining its place within the global reinsurance landscape.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"session_title_list\"><span class=\"ti-bookmark\"><\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"session_title_item\">MAIN STAGE SESSIONS<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><br class=\"clear\"\/><\/div>\n<\/li>\n<li class=\"themeborder speaker-sessions \">\n<div class=\"session_content_wrapper expandable\" data-expandid=\"excerpt_15255\">\n<div class=\"session_speaker_icon\"><span class=\"ti-timer\"><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"session_content has_speaker_thumb\">\n<div class=\"session_start_time\">11:45&nbsp;&#8211;&nbsp;12:30<\/div>\n<div class=\"session_title\">\n<h6>Resilience and Renewal: Energy Futures after Conflict<\/h6>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><br class=\"clear\"\/><\/div>\n<div id=\"excerpt_15255\" class=\"session_content_extend hide session_content_wrapper\">\n<div class=\"session_content has_speaker_thumb\">\n<div class=\"session_excerpt\">\n<p>The ongoing 2026 Middle East conflict is reshaping global energy routes and infrastructure resilience, creating renewed urgency around energy security and transition strategies. As COP31 in Antalya approaches, governments and industry leaders are intensifying discussions on how geopolitical instability accelerates the shift towards sustainable and decentralised power systems.
