Given the exceptional nature of this particular renewal I was delighted to have some time with James Vickers Chair, Willis Re International.

We spoke at length about the hardening market, the impact of the class of 2020 and of course the potential costs and all the coverage issues surrounding Covid 19.

James is an exceptionally clear-thinking and eloquent commentator so I highly recommend the half hour conversation that follows.

And do make sure you accompany this podcast with a read of Willis Re’s 1.1.21 First View Report which they have entitled Firming Landscape.
