I’m delighted to say that todays’ guest is a returning visitor and he returns very much the insurance executive of the moment.
Adrian Cox is the CEO of Beazley which since we last spoke has cemented its reputation as the most dynamic and pioneering of the London-headquartered global specialty insurers and reinsurers.
Late in 2022 Beazley raised fresh capital to deploy into the hard reinsurance market.
It did this in an environment when almost nobody else could get financing away.
And just as we were about to do the recording the firm announced it had placed the first ever Cyber cat bond.
So perhaps understandably Adrian was absolutely buzzing in this episode.
The firm’s core markets have all reset and Beazley’s positions within them look extremely attractive
In this crackling podcast we cover the market resets in property reinsurance, specialty and cyber classes and where Beazley fits in with them, as well as the ongoing ESG transition, the prospects for rising tech efficiencies in insurance and the emergence of new ways of working in the post-pandemic world.
