I am honestly so excited to share this week's episode because it's one that stuck with me long after we finished recording. If you have ever faced a layoff or felt the pressure of a ticking clock, you will definitely want to tune in to this conversation! My guest for this episode, Namrata Kulkarni, is a highly skilled data architect and business intelligence engineer who came to the U.S. in 2015 to pursue her master's degree at Syracuse University. Like many immigrants, her journey has not been easy, but it has shaped her into the person whom she is today, and after eight years with the same company, Namrata was laid off while on an H1B visa, which meant that she had only sixty days to land a new role or risk losing her right to stay in the country!This is pressure which most of us cannot imagine, but what really personally struck me was how Namrata responded. She skipped the shock and jumped straight into action, choosing gratitude over resentment. In her own words, “The layoff didn't happen to me—it happened for me.” I honestly had to pause when she said that because how often do any of us reframe setbacks that way?!Listen in as Namrata opens up about the challenges of job hunting for the first time outside of her company, relearning how to interview, and wrestling with whether or not to tell her family that she had been laid off. There is also a vulnerable moment in which she talks about the well-meaning but unhelpful things people say such as “I'm so sorry” which simply don't land the way people tend to think that they do. (Speaking as someone who's been laid off more than once, I personally felt that deeply.)What is especially inspiring here is not just that she landed one job offer but TWO in a job market that is anything but stable right now, and she did it by focusing on what was in her control - preparation, mindset, and leaning on the relationships that she had built over the years.If you are facing uncertainty, dealing with a career change, and/or supporting someone who is, you will definitely take something away from this episode, and if you haven't yet, I also highly recommend that you check out or revisit episode 43 of the show in which I speak with Rebecca Reeder, a pastor-turned-AI analyst who offers yet another incredible career story! Thanks for listening and being part of these conversations!Episode Highlights: [2:02] - Namrata reveals that she has been in the data industry for almost 10 years.[4:42] - Speak from the heart, and don't expect anything back.[5:41] - Hear how, moving to the U.S. in 2015, Namrata grew independent and grateful for her journey.[8:13] - Embracing her layoff, Namrata felt gratitude, trusting her instincts and cherishing SCOR's support.[11:04] - Namrata shares how her colleagues' support affirmed her skills, inspiring her to seek new opportunities.[12:24] - I point out how the layoff was a chance for Namrata to reinvent herself.[13:13] - Thanks to support and extra preparation time, Namrata took on interviews under intense pressure.[16:20] - Hear how Namrata overcame shame and networked tirelessly.[17:45] - Refining her skills and her resume, Namrata trusted the universe while pushing through interview anxiety.[20:03] - Truly believing that she was the right fit, Namrata practiced relentlessly until confidence replaced interview anxiety.[22:40] - Namrata argues that performing well requires pursuing what truly excites and energizes you.[25:25] - Starting at Amazon feels surreal for Namrata, with her focus now on learning and effectively contributing.[26:38] - Life's serendipity often redirects plans.[28:15] - Namrata credits her network in helping her land interviews, proving that referrals and support make a difference.Links & Resources:Email Gary: gary@garydanoff.comGary Danoff LinkedInLHH LinkedInNamrata Kulkarni LinkedInWhat's Next Now! - “From Pastor to AI Ethicist”

InsTech, has launched its "State of Irish Insurtech Report 2024, to position Ireland as a global centre for insurance innovation, where industry giants and start-ups can come together to collaborate and create the next generation of insurance solutions. The findings of the new report were presented to Minister of State for Financial Services, Credit Unions and Insurance, Neale Richmond in a productive meeting on the potential for the sector. As the independent, neutral convener InsTech.ie plays a pivotal role in Ireland becoming a leader for insurance technology and insurance innovation. It champions Irish Insurtechs, supporting them to scale into international markets, by building awareness of the depth and breadth of insurance innovation emerging from Ireland. Founding members include AA, Allianz, Aviva, Axa, FBD, Irish Life, VHI, Laya, Scor, Unum and RSA/123.ie. One of the first activities InsTech.ie conducted back in 2022 was the mapping of the indigenous Insurtechs in Ireland. Each year InsTech updates this map and it has now grown to 114 Insurtechs. To coincide with the release of the latest version of the map, InsTech.ie conducted a survey of Irish Insurtechs to gain a better understanding of the landscape in Ireland and learn more about how it can support them to scale and encourage better, stronger collaboration across the ecosystem. On receiving the report Minister for State at the Department of Finance, Neale Richmond said, "Innovation in the Insurtech sector has the potential to pass on huge benefits to customers. Ireland hosts all of the world's top 10 global software companies and 11 of the top 15 global insurers. With a strong track record in both insurance and technology, Ireland has all of the elements to create a powerful cluster of insurance innovation and is a natural hub for the next wave of disruptive Insurtech firms. This InsTech report gives us a framework to explore the opportunities." On the launch of the report InsTech.ie CEO Gary Leyden said, "We have seen huge growth in the number and funding of Insurtech startups in Ireland and it has the potential to be a global centre for insurance innovation . The main finding of the survey this year is that there is an acknowledgement between incumbents and startups in the insurance sector that they can work together to a greater extent and have an increasing appetite to do so. This has the potential to deliver better experiences to consumers. " Leyden added, "InsTech.ie will be the forum to encourage greater innovation and we will be announcing more initiatives to support incumbents and startups collaborate and innovate together in the coming months." Some key findings of the survey in the report include: Background of Founders: 39% of founders came from an insurance background. Interestingly, a greater number of respondents stated that they came from a non-financial services background. Ambition: 90 percent Insurtech startups are seeking to enter into new markets. Challenges: Founders listed "resistance to change" as the main barriers to implementing technological innovations in the insurance industry. Potential for innovation: 68.7percent of stakeholders surveyed said emerging technologies (e.g., AI, blockchain) were "essential for innovation and growth." Ireland has witnessed a range of successful startup ventures, with the Irish Insurtech cluster being led by Fineos. Fast-growing companies such as Kota and DOCOsoft are also providing crucial technological solutions for the insurance industry. Working with their large incumbent members and these startups InsTech.ie aims to accelerate further collaboration and innovation in the industry.

Esta semana la polémica ha llegado de la mano de Warner Bros Discovery con un documento, filtrado, con posibles novedades de cara a la Copa del Mundo de MTB en un futuro muy cercano en todas sus modalidades. Analizamos el documento y las posibles consecuencias. No dejamos de lado la actualidad con la llegada de la nueva Santa Cruz Hightower 4, la Canyon Spectral:ONfly, las nuevas Giant Revolt Advanced Pro y Advanced o la edición especial 20 aniversario de la Mondraker Foxy. También hablamos del plan del gobierno de aportar 40 millones de euros para apoyar la compra de e-bikes (urbanas) y el apoyo a los sistemas públicos de alquiler. En este episodio contamos con el apoyo de SCOR. Se trata de una marca con un origen muy interesante. Y es que es fruto del trabajo y la creatividad de miembros del equipo de BMC. Ellos querían hacer bicis de montaña cañeras y la marca suiza decidió que había que dar una oportunidad a su conocimiento y creatividad. Así, lo que parecía un grupo de trabajo acabó convirtiéndose en una marca propia bajo el paraguas de BMC. A día de hoy SCOR cuenta con un catálogo muy interesante con bicis de Enduro, Trail y una gama espectacular de ebikes.

Chances are one of the thousands of courses that are participating in the program is near you. But what exactly is Tee It Forward?

Barney Adams, entrepreneur, club maker, and founder of Adams Golf came up with this idea and convinced the PGA and USGA of its merit. This is part 1 of 2 in which Barney explains that it's a really good idea, despite it's name. In part 2 for Members Only, Fred pushes Barney for more of an explanation and tries to come up with a better name. http://www.playgolfamerica.com/index.cfm?action=teeitforward Terry Koehler of SCOR Golf answers Steve Xintas request to explain bounce.

Candidata USR, Elena Lasconi, se clasează pe locul al treilea, cu 15,3%, la aproape șase procente de Mircea Geoană (independent) și două de Marcel Ciolacu (PSD), după cum arată datele unui ultim sondaj realizat pentru USR de Verifield, potrivit surselor Libertatea.Pe locul al patrulea este George Simion, cu 14,1%. La foarte mică distanță este Diana Șoșoacă, cu 13,9%.Departe de aceste procente este Nicolae Ciucă, cu 7,3%. Au mai fost măsurați Cristian Diaconescu (6% – independent), Kelemen Hunor (2,3% – candidat UDMR) și Ana Birchall (1,7% – candidată independentă).În ceea ce privește parlamentarele, fără a fi vreo surpriză, locul întâi e ocupat de PSD, cu o intenție de vot de 29,3%. Pe locul al doilea sunt liberalii, cu o intenție de vot de 17,8%, în timp ce pe locul al treilea este Alianța pentru Unirea Românilor, cu 16,6%. Ciucă, înfiorat de sondajele care arată că nu prinde turul 2. Va renunța la candidatură? Trei variante pentru PNL (SpotMedia)În PNL sunt discuții pentru găsirea unei variante de retragere a generalului. Campania de lansare a fost un eșec, cartea nescrisă a liderului liberal devenind subiect de glume pe rețelele sociale. O schimbare de strategie la PNL va avea efecte surprinzătoare asupra alegerilor parlamentare și prezidențiale din toamnă.Marea problemă a liberalilor e că nu au un înlocuitor competitiv. Asta a făcut ca în PNL să se formeze trei curente de opinie: Renunțarea la Nicolae Ciucă și susținerea Elenei Lasconi, candidata USR, singura care e pe trend ascendent în sondaje și are cotă de 16%. Astfel se formează o nouă alianță de centru-dreapta, PNL-USR, care are cele mai mari șanse să câștige alegerile prezidențiale și să ia un scor bun la alegerile parlamentare, apropiat sau mai mare ca al PSD. A doua soluție e o înțelegere cu PSD prin care formațiunea social-democrată să transfere voturi cu ajutorul primarilor către Nicolae Ciucă, astfel încât în finala prezidențială să intre Marcel Ciolacu și liderul liberal. Astfel s-ar rezolva problema majorității parlamentare, a președintelui (Ciucă) și a prim-ministrului (Ciolacu). Aici, problema principală e că nici PSD nu dispune de suficiente voturi, liderul social-democrat nefiind sută la sută sigur că ajunge în turul doi al prezidențialelor, deși are șanse mult mai mari ca Nicolae Ciucă. A treia e asumarea riscului ca Nicolae Ciucă să rateze finala. Partidul să intre în campanie, susținându-l pe actualul lider, iar decizia unei posibile alianțe să se ia după primul tur al alegerilor prezidențiale. Problema acestei strategii e că ratarea finalei pentru Cotroceni va avea consecințe negative asupra votului pentru Parlament, ce are loc la o săptămână după primul tur.Integral pe pagina SpotMedia. Marea amnistie fiscală e pielea ursului din pădure: Doar 4 mld. lei pot fi recuperați din ”creanțele de 180 mld. lei” anunțate de premierul Ciolacu (CursDeGuvernare)Premierul Marcel Ciolacu a confirmat marți, 27 august, că Ministerul Finanțelor pregătește un proiect de amnistie fiscală pentru firme și persoane fizice. Șeful Executivului a anunțat că sprijină acest proiect, care ar aduce la bugetul public o parte semnificativă din arieratele de 180 de miliarde de lei înregistrate de ANAF.Amnistia anunțată va aduce cel mult 4 miliarde de lei: o spun datele guvernului și Aritmetica, scrie CursDeGuvernare.Aproape 45.000 de firme au restanțe la bugetul de stat de peste 1.000 de lei. Dintre acestea, doar 1.000 au cifre de afaceri suficiente pentru a-și permite să achite datoriile.Premierul Marcel Ciolacu și ministrul Finanțelor, Marcel Boloș, speră să acopere deficitul record spre care se îndreaptă guvernul în 2024 prin recuperarea arieratelor din sectorul privat.Arieratele de 180 de miliarde nu există efectiv. 32.000 de firme datornice nici n-au au avut activitate în 2023, mai scrie CursDeGuvernare. Pozitivi la alcooltest după ce au consumat un corn cu ciocolată sau vanilie. Experimentul unor polițiști (Adevărul)O nouă postare a fostului polițist sibian Viorel Teacă a devenit virală după ce a repetat un experiment realizat anterior de un șef de poliție din Africa, în care s-a testat legătura dintre consumul unui corn cu ciocolată și alcoolemie.Viorel Teacă a realizat propriul experiment folosind un croissant cu vanilie și un alcooltest Drager, folosit și de Poliția Română. Astfel, a obținut o alcoolemie de 0,32. Videoclipul său a strâns aproape 1,5 milioane de vizualizări, declanșând numeroase reacții online.În timp ce unii au pus la îndoială autenticitatea experimentului, alții au folosit ocazia pentru a critica legislația și sistemul, sugerând că oameni nevinovați ar putea rămâne fără permis din cauza unor situații similare.Continuarea în Adevărul.

Behavioral economics research has shown that small details can have a large impact on how a person behaves. As life insurance transitions to using digital and streamlined processes, we must rely more on application form responses. However, traditional application forms can be complicated, confusing, and difficult for applicants to answer easily. Behavioral science concepts applied to redesigned application form questions create a better customer experience and improve the accuracy and honesty of information disclosed. Join us for this episode of the SCOR Innovation Podcast to hear how the research results support the business case for innovating policy application questions to promote better disclosures in life insurance applications.

China's new round of financial reform is expected to focus on improving the financial system's ability to better support the country's modernization drive, with a priority on bolstering technological innovation and the broader real economy, said financial experts and executives.Also expected to be high on the agenda of the unfolding reform are intensifying financial regulation and strengthening the crackdown on violations to fend off financial risks, as well as deepening financial opening-up to improve resource allocation efficiency, they said.Their comments come at a juncture when the market eagerly waits to see how China will set the tone for the road map for future financial reform and opening-up at an upcoming vital reform meeting — the third plenary session of the 20th Communist Party of China Central Committee, which is scheduled to be held in Beijing from Monday to Thursday.Early this year, President Xi Jinping urged efforts to accelerate the building of a modern financial system with Chinese characteristics at the opening of a study session at the Party School of the CPC Central Committee (National Academy of Governance).Xi, who is also general secretary of the CPC Central Committee, emphasized that the path of financial development with Chinese characteristics adheres to the fundamental purpose of serving the real economy and takes preventing and controlling risks as the eternal theme of financial work.Tian Xuan, associate dean of Tsinghua University's PBC School of Finance, said that one of the core objectives of China's financial reform should be building a modern financial system that efficiently serves the real economy, especially when it comes to financing innovative emerging sectors at lower costs, in order to support technological innovations and nurture new quality productive forces.He said the country's financial reform is expected to feature strengthened regulation to fend off any systemic risks, with the focus being on financial fraud crackdown in the capital market as well as on deficiencies in the supervision and governance of small and medium-sized financial institutions."Our financial markets are still developing and not yet mature. We need the government to play its role well to correct market failures," said Tian, who is also a deputy to the National People's Congress, the country's top legislature.Tian said he expects the upcoming plenary session to introduce reform measures aimed at further developing venture capital — investment funds that invest in startups for long-term growth and are among key accelerators of technological innovation.A meeting on April 30 of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee, which was presided over by Xi, called for efforts to actively develop venture capital and strengthen "patient capital", or investment that generates healthy returns in the long run.The emphasis on venture capital has reflected China's broader efforts in capital market reform. China's financial system is now dominated by the banking industry, yet the capital market is seen as more capable of supporting innovation activity. This makes further capital market development an integral step for China, in order to ensure that the financial system becomes more capable of serving its modernization pursuit, experts said.In April, the State Council, China's Cabinet, released a guideline that rolled out nine measures to promote high-quality development of the capital market, drawing up a blueprint for the market and featuring an intensified crackdown on securities violations and strengthened investor protection.Wu Xiaoqiu, dean of Renmin University of China's National Academy of Financial Research, said the guideline has set the right tone for future capital market reform, urging "tough laws and harsh punishments" to stem violations and address the prominent issues of fraudulent listings and false disclosures.The compensation system for small investors affected by those malpractices and induced delistings should also be improved on both the civil and judicial fronts, Wu said.China's A-share market rallied on Thursday, with the benchmark Shanghai Composite Index rising 1.06 percent on Thursday to close at 2,970.39 points, following a policy measure issued on Wednesday to restrict short-selling.At the Central Financial Work Conference in November, Xi called for giving full play to the pivotal role of the capital market, advancing the registration-based initial public offering system and steadily expanding institutional opening-up in the financial sector.Experts also underlined the need for China to widen opening-up to strengthen the financial system's ability for resource allocation, expecting the upcoming reform meeting to call for ensuring a transparent, predictable regulatory environment for foreign investors and reinforcing the role of Hong Kong as an international financial hub.Zhang Xiaoyan, a chair professor of finance at Tsinghua University's PBC School of Finance, said she expects the country to further drive financial opening-up to attract more foreign institutional investors, whose global perspective and investment expertise will help channel more resources to technological companies with real strength.Thierry Leger, CEO of Paris-based global reinsurer SCOR, said that China's step-by-step financial opening-up has helped shape a high level of confidence, and it is important for the country to continue to build a stable regulatory environment for foreign investors.Eugene Qian, China country head of UBS and chairman of UBS Securities, said the Swiss financial giant, having benefited from China's capital market reform and opening-up, will continue to leverage its international experience and local expertise to support China's further reform in the capital market.Reporter: Zhou Lanxu, Liu Zhihua, Ouyang Shijiaresource allocation efficiency资源配置效率the path of financial development with Chinese characteristics中国特色金融发展之路market failures市场失灵

We discuss an offshore renewable insurance consortium launched by SCOR and Acrisure Re and EDPR's acquisition of Australian renewables firm ITPD to expand in the Asia Pacific. Plus, a look at the rising budget costs for clean energy tax credits in the U.S. Inflation Reduction Act and what it could mean for the growth of wind, solar and electric vehicles. Allen Hall: I'm Allen Hall, president of Weather Guard Lightning Tech, and I'm here with the founder and CEO of IntelStor, Phil Totaro, and the chief commercial officer of Weather Guard, Joel Saxum. And this is your News Flash. News Flash is brought to you by our friends at IntelStor. If you need actionable information about renewable projects or technologies, check out IntelStor at IntelStor.com. Reinsurer SCOR has launched a new offshore renewable energy insurance consortium with partner Acrisure Re. The consortium increases SCOR's total deployable capacity to over 180 million dollars. SCOR says. Its technical expertise and understanding of client needs positions it as a leader in providing insurance. To the growing offshore wind industry. So Phil, another insurance company hopping into the offshore market, there seems to be a lot of people putting their toes in the water at this point on offshore. 180 million is not a lot of money in that marketplace, but it does seem like people are testing the waters. Philip Totaro: It's an interesting thing. Certainly good to do with a partner. The challenge with offshore is obviously with the scale, like you're saying, 180 million and deployable. Capital is not going to really make that much of a dent in the overall global market, which is, well over, a trillion dollars in investment even at this point. The reality is that, insurers have seen a lot of losses onshore and offshore. It's good that you're getting, new companies involved. It's, score is increasing the scope of their. What they're able to address. The challenge is that, I think these kind of partnerships. Are going to be necessary moving forward because insurers and in particular reinsurers have had a really rough go of it. With some of the catastrophic losses that they faced, particularly in offshore over the years where, entire projects have had to have, the main shaft bearings replaced on the turbine or. You've had other kind of significant fleet wide issues in, in some cases. Overall, it's a good thing. It's a good deal. But it's a market that's getting tougher and tougher to get into. Joel Saxum: Yeah, the important thing to understand about the insurance market in any industrial capacity, specifically, we're talking about onshore, offshore wind here, is that you don't have an insurance company and that's your insurance. You may have an insurance company, the broker, whatever that runs the thing, but you may have 20, In an offshore win, you could have 20, 30 companies in here. So if SCOR comes in on a project, say there's, right now we talked earlier today about Dogger Bank A. Dogger Bank A is going to have two, two policies there. One for construction, one's when they turn into operations. There's going to be a turn off, turn on date there. That, say, we're going to go to the policy when it is in operation, that policy may be written by, who knows, I don't know, Aeon, that's the broker, but the Aeon will have 20 different, 30 different companies behind them, each one of them taking 2%, 3%, 5 percent of that risk, there may be one lead on there, and that lead on something like an offshore wind project may only be 7. 5 percent or 10 percent or 15 percent as opposed to onshore where it may sometimes be 25, 30, 40 percent because, that asset, that wind farm may be worth 100 million or 200 million where you go to an offshore wind farm, it's worth a billion. Nobody has that kind of capital. So a lot of times the lead is someone who really knows offshore stuff Njord, they put that thing out because, the big pro,

This was the fourth session of the day at our Artemis London 2023 insurance-linked securities (ILS) market conference, held on September 5th in London, UK. Around 240 attendees enjoyed a busy day of thoughtful catastrophe bond and insurance-linked securities (ILS) focused discussion from industry experts, as well as valuable networking opportunities. This session features an expert panel discussing the need to sustain returns, across both catastrophe bonds and private ILS such as collateralized reinsurance, and ideas as to how that can be achieved. The panel discussion was moderated by: Philipp Kusche, Global Head of ILS, Howden Tiger Capital Markets & Advisory. He was joined on stage by: Florian Steiger, Head of Cat Bonds, Twelve Capital; Hervé Castella, Chief Third Party Capital Officer, SCOR; Marco della Giacoma, Portfolio Manager, Tenax Capital; and Michael Rich, Head ILS, Commodities & Environmental Strategies, K2 Advisors. The panellists spoke about the evident diversification benefits that allocations to ILS have exhibited for investors over the last few years, saying that the lack of correlation remains a key driver for investor capital inflows to the sector. They also explored how investor sentiment is evolving in the catastrophe bond space, as well as more broadly for investments into private ILS such as collateralized reinsurance arrangements. Listen to the full podcast episode to learn more about the return potential of investment allocations to the insurance-linked securities (ILS) market.

Adrian Jones is venture capitalist in insurance and former reinsurance executive.  Organizations that he has been a part of have invested in 40+ young insurance sector companies.  Adrian has been a Board director or observer at eight young companies including distributors, carriers, and service providers in insurance.  Before joining HSCM Ventures as a Partner in 2021, he was Deputy CEO of P&C Partners at SCOR, where he set-up and led SCOR P&C Ventures.  From 2010 to 2016, he was head of strategy at RenaissanceRe.  He started his career in 2001 at Bain & Co and has lived/worked in New York, Paris, Bermuda, Brussels, and Stockholm.  Comments made by Adrian are made in a personal capacity only and should not be associated with any organization to which he is afiliated, employed, or an investor.  His comments are solely for educational purposes and do not represent recommendations or research.   Highlights from the Show Adrian started in consulting, then worked in reinsurance and venture investing He has been looking at the headcount in the InsurTech sector starting with data from mid-2020, and saw that employment has increased from about 75,000 to over 100,000 In the downturn, there was a retrenchment, with companies reducing staff by 31% on average, with the bulk of that being driven by mid-sized companies (200-1000 employees) There's been a lot of movement recently, between startups and incumbents, and people from outside the industry coming into it (and vice versa) This also portends the changes we've now seen in the traditional insurance companies, especially in admitted carriers, some of which have been reducing staff Adrian spoke at ITC on lessons from early InsurTechs (founded after 2008) who are now worth $5 B or more, and looked into what lessons we can learn from their success He noted 7 lessons from their experience A surprising finding is that technology is not the differentiator He found leadership teams that were experienced, entry into dislocated markets, partnership and support with regulators, and time to prove their model's success "Insurance is a business of compounding reserves over time, and many young businesses haven't had the chance to prove that their compounding machine works? You can see his slides at https://www.linkedin.com/posts/adrianjo_adrian-jones-keynote-at-insuretech-connect-activity-7125587320308682752-NhL6 Insurance isn't about the giant TAM and high traction for Adrian, who would rather see less traction but the right traction rather than getting lots of traction that ends up being bad business Adrian has also seen reinsurers support the new InsurTech risk takers, whether backing programs where 100% gets ceded, to even carriers where they're ceding 40-60% of the premium (whereas an established carrier seeds 6% on average) He didn't see the reinsurance veto people predicted We talked about how to address the issue where coverage is too expensive to buy and too cheap to sell in some pockets today, and what role parametric could play in solving that He sees parametric as a good solution, but in niche situations like a deductible buy down You face basis risk and a need for distributors who are willing to educate consumers while taking potential E&O exposure if insureds are unhappy when their loss isn't paid because the parametric trigger wasn't met This episode is brought to you by The Future of Insurance book series (future-of-insurance.com) from Bryan Falchuk.
