Today’s guest is one of the best-known and most experienced executives in the reinsurance broking world.
Ross Howard is Global Executive Chairman of Lockton Re and has launched himself into a major project to help build a challenger reinsurance broker for the Lockton Group.
In this podcast we find out why he thinks the current market opportunities are some of the best he has seen in his long career and why, provided you have the right platform as a base, knowledge, expertise and relationships are more important than they have ever been.
I have been meeting and interviewing Ross on and off for around 15 years and I think some of that rapport shows in this encounter.
Ross is the consummate broker: charming, knowledgeable, accommodating, imaginative and unflappable.
I highly recommend you spend the next half an hour or so in his company.
