John Hele, chief financial officer at MetLife, Inc. (NYSE:MET), will
present a keynote address at KPMG’s Annual Insurance Conference on
Wednesday, Sept. 18, at approximately 8:15 a.m. (ET).
Hele will discuss the evolving regulatory landscape facing the life
insurance industry, especially the focus on systemic risk and heightened
capital requirements in the wake of the financial crisis. He will note
the non-systemic nature of insurance liabilities relative to bank
liabilities; discuss the unintended consequences of imposing a bank
capital framework on the insurance industry; and outline a path forward
that appropriately captures insurance risk while preserving the
industry’s ability to offer affordable financial protection.
The conference will be held at the New York Marriott Marquis, 1535
Broadway, in New York City and is open to the news media.
