After Consensus Success, Premier & Minister of Finance travels to London

“An unqualified success”, said Premier Burt about his time at Consensus 2022 in Austin, Texas, where he and representatives from the Bermuda Business Development Agency (BDA) and the Bermuda Monetary Authority (BMA) engaged with business leaders to promote Bermuda’s Fintech industry.

The Premier & Minister of Finance departed Texas on Saturday evening for London where he, and the Financial Secretary Ms Cheryl Lister, will be joined by the BDA, and representatives from the Association for Bermuda Insurers & Reinsurers (ABIR), and the Association of Bermuda International Companies (ABIC) for meetings with U.K. Government officials including the Department of Treasury to discuss matters regarding Bermuda’s financial services sector.

The Premier will also hold business development meetings alongside the BDA, and take part in interviews with British media as the Government of Bermuda continues to promote Bermuda’s growing fintech and climate risk finance sectors and Bermuda’s continued leadership in insurance and reinsurance.

Premier David Burt said: “The purpose of this trip to London is to continue to make connections with our counterparts in the U.K. Government to ensure the stability and growth of Bermuda’s insurance and reinsurance sector.

It is also an opportunity to highlight the strength and robustness of the Bermuda market as well as our development in fintech, and climate risk finance which continues to gain momentum.”
