Andrew Putwain: Could you please introduce yourself and tell us what your role entails, and what your overall investment strategy is?

Joris Laenen: My official title is Chief Investment and Life Officer, which is atypical in an insurance company because life and investments are mostly separated.

I joined Ethias in 2019; I became a member of the board in 2021. I have spent most of my career working in banks (Financial Markets) and asset management.
