It was our sixth in-person conference in Singapore focused on catastrophe bonds, insurance-linked securities (ILS) and alternative reinsurance capital trends. The third panel session of the day featured a discussion titled "Connecting innovative risk transfer with capital markets." Moderating the panel session was: Kirtiraj (Raj) Jadeja, Divisional Director, AGILE Risk Advisory. Joining him were: Piyush Jain, Appointed Actuary, Kshema General Insurance Ltd.; Esther Kim, Senior Product Manager, Public Sector Solutions, Swiss Re; Alexander Pui, SVP, Climate and Sustainability Consulting, Marsh; Yash Jain, Founder, Cliff Horizon. The panel explored the role of technology in risk transfer, as well as innovative and responsive techniques such as parametric triggers and discussed why these innovative forms of risk transfer may prove attractive opportunities to investors in the capital markets. They also discussed the protection gap and opportunities to narrow it using innovative insurance and reinsurance risk transfer techniques and efficient capital sources. Listen to the full podcast episode for more insights into why innovative and responsive risk transfer may prove well-suited to further development of ILS and catastrophe bonds in Asia Pacific.

In this Convo of Flanigan's Eco-Logic, Ted speaks with Brian Thurston, an environmental entrepreneur, currently serving as a Sustainability Solutions Sales Director at APTIM, an environmental solutions firm. He's also worked as a Senior Advisor for multiple companies and nonprofits in the environmental sector, focusing on business development and strategic partnerships. His background is in business development and consulting – utilizing innovation and technology to build multi-disciplinary networks to attack big problems at scale.He and Ted discuss his background, born in Torrance, CA, raised in Manhattan Beach, and still lives in the South Bay area in Hermosa Beach. He shares that he grew up at the beach and in the ocean surfing, which is how he wound up in the environmental field. Being eco-conscious was ingrained in the ethos of growing up where he did, participating in beach clean ups, and very much aware of the deterioration of water quality. He attended Long Beach State to play volleyball, and then transferred to the University of Southern California to study American Literature.  Between his undergraduate degree and graduate degree, he worked in the film and event planning industries. He then decided to shift to a career in the environmental sector, attending graduate school in Washington DC at Johns Hopkins via their hybrid program, studying environmental science policy and sustainability. He and Ted met when he worked at EcoMedia, where he was hired to be a Program Director, developing and managing public/private partnerships. He then worked for Waste Management as a national business development manager, where he focused on customized and scalable programs for Waste Management's Fortune 500 customers, leveraging internal assets and technology. Brian then moved on to consulting with climate tech companies. He and Ted discuss some recent ventures, including the Bluebox energy efficient HVAC solution, Hytch Rewards mobility app, Oceanworks recycled plastic solution, and being a board member of Sustainable Surf. Working with all of these mission-driven companies that tackle big problems, Brian believes that the concept that the environment and profit are at odds is a myth, and that creativity and innovation prove that every day!

Is the company really striving towards a more sustainable future or is it just greenwashing, a marketing gimmick intended to mislead consumers who prefer to buy goods and services from environmentally conscious brands? Join the discussion on what exactly does CO2 free and neutral mean, what is its impact on the environment (if any), and is it really even possible to reduce, offset, or remove the carbon dioxide emissions companies create. How to navigate in these myriad of green pledges, what to buy and where to invest? Or have we even given too much attention to CO2 over many other paramount realms of sustainability?

Gościem sto dziewiątego odcinka mojej audycji jest Marta Karwacka - Senior Manager, Sustainability Consulting, Deloitte. Podczas naszej rozmowy Marta podzieliła się swoją niezwykłą pasją i zaangażowaniem w edukację, której celem jest zwiększenie ekologicznej społeczeństwa. Dowiedzieliśmy się, jakie korzyści niesie ze sobą wprowadzenie strategii drugiego obiegu w działalność firm oraz jakie kroki mogą podjąć jednostki, aby przyczynić się do tworzenia bardziej zrównoważonej przyszłości.

For this episode and the foreseeable future, we're experimenting with a new podcast format, less linear, less binary, more conversational, informal, improvisational. We intend to focus on issues both of the moment and bigger picture, longer term, all related somehow to sustainable cities, this podcast's soul's purpose. We'll still do more conventional episodes, with special guests, but will also mix it up with our alternative format. To help on this new leg of our podcast journey, we have an additional cohost, Devon Bertram, in lieu of a guest. Devon's an old friend and OG in the sustainable built environment field, about 20 years worth. She's the VP of Sustainability Consulting at Stok, where she advises clients on how to define, develop, implement, and manage sustainability programs and standards for their building portfolios that align with their corporate brand, values, and purpose.  Appropriately, given our new format, we figured we'd focus this episode on the topic of the “new work,” work from home, hybrid, return to the office and other matters, like essential workers – hospital staff, janitors, sanitation workers, police -- who, no matter what the office plan du jour, have to show up somewhere in physical form. There are no alternatives.  And what about climate change and the huge impact our commuter patterns have on GHG emissions? Transportation is now the largest source of carbon emission in the US, bigger than the energy sector, or buildings. It therefore stands to reason, and climate science, that reducing our vehicle miles traveled to and from work (the overwhelming majority of which are by automobile, not trains or buses, let alone electric ones powered by a clean grid) ought to be a priority climate mitigation strategy. It isn't.  And will office/commercial real estate owners and brokers sit idly by as they watch their tenants opt-out and their office parks wither? We're delighted to welcome Devon and to jump into our new format. We hope you enjoy it.

We had the pleasure of hosting our dynamic guest speaker, Georgia Elliott-Smith, Element Four's Managing Director. In this episode, we explore the hidden narrative of sustainability consulting and the importance of disruptive practices that enact meaningful and systemic change. Georgia shares how she got into this space and sheds light on the lucrative salaries and perks offered by big business to sustainability consultants. She touches on the critical role of corporate activism in holding profit-driven corporations accountable and discusses the importance of calling out greenwashing. We delve deeper into challenging the status quo and paving the way for a new model of sustainability management that prioritises the planet's well-being over business interests.

Today Tiffany's chatting with our first EVER guest, Rebecca Schwartz Altholz. Rebecca studied Sustainability Management at Columbia University and now devotes the majority of her time to environmental sustainability education as well as Sustainability Consulting. She's passionate about shifting the mindset around the expectation of perfection that we hold ourselves, others and especially brands to as we're all finding our way on this sustainability journey. So..what can we REALLY expect from brands? As a brand, how can we best approach the way we talk about sustainability? What does the word "sustainable" even mean and should we still use it??! We still don't have all the answers either, and that's okay. This one's for creators and consumers alike.

We are facing multiple planetary crises' from climate change, to biodiversity loss, ecosystem collapse, rising pollution, mass migration, rising emissions, new pandemics, governments unwilling or incapable of calling an emergency, business as usual everywhere we look, and so much more. Is it any wonder people are feeling hopeless and desperate in the face of these serious threats? I mean, it doesn't look like we're doing anything about it at all!The idea that we have no voice in this fight, no ability to overcome the challenges we face, is a big issue we want to tackle. Because at this stage in the game, it is us - ALL of us - that really can get governments and businesses acting like our world is on fire, because it is. Of course, it takes courage to speak up and we are going to address the challenges, as well as many other issues that stop people from speaking out in defence of our future, and the future of our planet. To help me dig into this incredibly important topic, I am delighted to welcome three amazing individuals. Anjali Sharma is about to publish her new book “Strategic Storytelling” and she is a master in this field.
