$94 Billion Schroders Capital Launches Tokenised Pilot on Insurance-Linked Securities (ILS), Tested with Global Reinsurer Hannover Re to Tokenise Reinsurance Contracts & Trade on Public Blockchain Platform Speeding Up Investment Process Including Automating Subscriptions & Reducing Settlement Period, Insurance Payments are Automatically Triggered in Events Such as Hurricanes, Earthquakes & Windstorms, Schroders Capital Insurance-Linked Securities (ILS) Team Manages $5 Billion AUM

8th July 2024 | Hong Kong

Schroders Capital with $94 billion AUM has launched the tokenised pilot on Insurance-Linked Securities (ILS), testing with global reinsurer Hannover Re to tokenise reinsurance contracts & trade on public blockchain platform which speeds up investment process including automating subscriptions & reducing settlement period.   Insurance payments are also automatically triggered in events such as hurricanes, earthquakes & windstorms.  Schroders Capital Insurance-Linked Securities (ILS) team manages $5 billion AUM.  Schroders Capital (8/7/24): “Schroders Capital, the c.US$94 billion private markets business of Schroders Group, today announces the launch of an innovative tokenisation pilot designed to enhance the way insurance-linked securities (ILS) investments are invested and managed. The proof of concept was a collaboration with global reinsurance company, Hannover Re.  The pilot further builds on Schroders Group’s commitment to innovation and leadership in digital assets, after having last year joined the Monetary Authority of Singapore’s Project Guardian, and participating in the first ever GBP Digital Bond issued by the European Investment Bank.  The initiative with Hannover Re, which has been tested by Schroders on an internal-only basis, has successfully enabled reinsurance contracts to be tokenised and traded on a public blockchain platform using smart contracts. Each token represents a share in a portfolio of reinsurance contracts, demonstrating how ILS funds may invest via a digital eco- system in the future.  Tokenising these contracts has, with the consistent oversight of investment professionals, allowed many time- consuming processes to be automated. For example, the pilot group was able to streamline the investment process by automating subscriptions and reducing settlement times.  Furthermore, through the integration of key catastrophe insurance data sources into the smart contracts, payments to the appropriate recipient are automatically triggered if specific natural disasters occur, such as US hurricanes or earthquakes, or European windstorms.  The pilot also demonstrated the potential for an improved client experience, boosting accessibility by allowing tokens to be held in investors’ own digital wallets alongside their other digital investments. The use of a public blockchain has also enhanced transparency, while still allowing appropriate governance and controls to be applied.  Earlier this year, Schroders Capital also announced that its ILS team is now managing over US$5 billion in funds as client demand continues to grow. The ILS team forms part of Schroders Capital’s Private Debt and Credit Alternatives (PDCA) business which was launched in 2023 and manages over US$30 billion in assets … …  This project was the result of more than a year of collaboration between Schroders, Hannover Re and the i.AM Innovation Lab, under the oversight of the Guernsey Financial Services Commission (GFSC).  Schroders Capital’s focus on innovation is a key theme and it plans to use the findings of this proof of concept to explore further tokenisation opportunities in the reinsurance market. In addition, in late-June the business also unveiled its Generative AI Investment Analyst (GAiiA) platform, designed to speed up the analysis of large volumes of data.”

Stephan Ruoff, Co-Head of Private Debt and Credit Alternatives, Schroders Capital: “The success of this pilot showcases the immense potential for enhancing transparency, streamlining investment processes and improving client experience in the reinsurance sector. It paves the way for a more interconnected and efficient digital ecosystem, and we are looking forward to exploring broader application to wider investment scenarios and clients.”

Henning Ludolphs, Managing Director Retrocession & Capital Markets, Hannover Re: “This proof of concept was a great opportunity to understand the capabilities of blockchain technology when applied to the reinsurance market. With strong governance and embedded compliance in place, the pilot also showed that the regulatory and operational risks around blockchain are similar to those of other market transactions. While this is an emerging technology, we anticipate more appetite for blockchain-enabled investments in the future, and this pilot prepares us well to evolve our approach to generate further retrocession capacity via a different source.”

5th July 2024 – Schroders Capital with $94 billion AUM has launched the Generative AI Investment Analyst (GAiiA) platform to speed up analysis of large volumes of data and to allow private equity investment specialists to focus on strategic investment activity.  The GAiiA platform automatically screens data, accelerates due diligence processes, and generates draft investment memosSchroders Capital (26/6/24): “Schroders Capital, Schroders’ specialist private markets business with $94 billion of assets under management, today unveils its Generative AI Investment Analyst (GAiiA) platform.  This innovation is designed to speed up the analysis of large volumes of data, enabling our private equity investment specialists to focus on delivering value through strategic investment activity to further support our clients’ investment needs.  It follows comprehensive in-house testing and further builds on the technology evolution across the Schroders Group, which has been actively deploying generative AI across the business for a substantial period.  Schroders Capital’s proprietary and internal-only platform harnesses the technical expertise of its data science specialists alongside the deep investment knowledge of its private equity team. It forms a core component of our leading private markets investment intellectual property.  Our private equity specialists can now automatically screen extensive volumes of data, accelerate due diligence processes and generate a significant portion of draft investment summaries in significantly less time. By supporting with the creation of draft investment memos, the platform has the potential to become a key part of the investment process.  By handling the heavy lifting of data analysis, GAiiA, which always has continual and extensive human oversight and control, can enable Schroders Capital’s investment professionals to analyse even more investments, allowing them to reallocate more of their time on adding value through direct interactions and strategic decisions with target and existing investments.  GAiiA is currently being used by Schroders Capital’s private equity team for private equity direct/co-investments. It is continually being optimised with plans to expand its use to private equity primaries and secondaries in the future and to other private market asset classes within Schroders Capital where appropriate.”

Leveraging the latest GPT models, Genie is now used by over 1,000 colleagues across the firm each day. More broadly, Schroders has already identified and is working on a substantial number of potential AI use-cases across the business, such as translations, as well as helping our specialists better understand clients’ behaviours and investment patterns.
