Partners Chat – Storm clouds and silver linings

This Christmas Eve, we bring to you our last Partners’ Chat of the year. Robin Merttens and Matthew Grant reflect on the year and the developments we’ve seen in insurance, particularly those set to define the industry in the next year. As always there are things to celebrate, and some things to be grumpy about.

Talking points include:

  • Our increasing understanding of what can or cannot be automated
  • M&A and MGAs – how they fared this year
  • Recognition of interdependence in insurance
  • War exclusions – what are they and why were they relevant in 2023?
  • The data in the hands of risk managers – how can we use it?
  • What to do when there is no capacity available
  • Love for wines

If you like what you’re hearing, please leave us a review on whichever platform you use or contact Matthew Grant on LinkedIn.

Sign up to the InsTech newsletter for a fresh view on the world every Wednesday morning.
