Objectifs

Luxembourg's insurance regulation permits a broad range of underlying investments in internal funds. These investments may manifest as unquoted/unlisted assets, depending on the overall investment strategy of the life insurance policy. Real estate, whether through funds or other appropriate structures, is also an acclaimed asset class in insurance policies, bringing a particular perspective.

As investors in these specific and typically more complex assets, insurers encounter increased risks and challenges. These risks include, but are not limited to, valuation concerns and extend to legal, compliance, governance, and other policy management matters. These aspects need to be assessed and monitored continuously, especially for cross-border policies.

The imperative for comprehensive and streamlined processes and controls is heightened, and implementing a clear action plan to address these challenges should be considered a priority.

By the end of this training, participants will be able to:

  • acquire comprehensive knowledge on valuation concepts specific to real estate assets held in life insurance;
  • understand recognised valuation methodologies, including valuation allocation techniques;
  • gain an overview of the European real estate markets.

Contenu

  • Key concepts in real estate valuation
  • Influencing factors on real estate values
  • Recognised valuation methodologies
  • European market updates
