Here at the Voice of Insurance we look at an extremely broad cross-section of the global insurance and reinsurance markets, form fascinating niches right to the top, to the giants of the sector.
Today’s guest is right at the top.
He has the biggest underwriting job in the world, with the size and scale to be able to move global markets.
That means knowing how he is thinking is required knowledge for anyone who wants to get a feel for what is happening in the marketplace.
In this interview I encountered someone cautiously optimistic of continued rate rises and new growth opportunities.
But perhaps more importantly I met someone confident that his organisation has the financial strength and risk appetite to make the most of those new opportunities as they present themselves.
In this podcast we examine the reinsurance market from end to end.
As 1.1 begins to loom in the diary, I can highly recommend this episode to you.
Once again we thank Claims Direct Access (CDA) for their support today.
