Recap of the Insurers' Real Asset Forum in Philadelphia

On May 7-8, 2025, InsuranceAUM.com hosted the Insurers' Real Asset Forum in Philadelphia, an event that attracted prominent figures from the insurance investment sector. This two-day forum served as a pivotal platform for practitioners to share insights on critical topics concerning Asset-Backed Finance (ABF), Real Estate, and Infrastructure.

High-profile guests including insurers, asset managers, and industry pioneers engaged in discussions that not only addressed current market trends but also explored future opportunities for innovative investing. The forum maintained a commendable attendee ratio of 21 limited partners (LPs) to general partners (GPs), ensuring robust interaction amongst attendees. This environment fostered deep dives into market dynamics, investment risks, and strategic innovations that professionals in the real asset space must consider.

Stewart Foley, CFA and the founder and managing partner of InsuranceAUM.com, emphasized the importance of connection and collaboration during the forum, noting, "From emerging ABF strategies to resilient infrastructure opportunities, the energy in the room reflected a shared commitment to navigating a rapidly changing market with intelligence and integrity." This statement encapsulates the essence of the forum, where dialogue and networking were the focal points.

The Philadelphia venue also enhanced the experience with intimate roundtable discussions and one-on-one networking sessions, allowing attendees to cultivate meaningful professional relationships. In a relaxed setting, a private dinner featuring music from a traditional Philadelphia jazz band fostered an inviting atmosphere that encouraged continuous engagement and camaraderie among participants.
