The renewable energy sector is a major growth opportunity for the insurance industry but the loss experience has been challenging. This was underlined last month by another major battery fire at the Moss Landing complex in California, which will cost insurers hundreds of millions of dollars. According to Nardac CEO Jatin Sharma, the event has shaken the confidence of the underwriting community. Underwriters have already moved to sub-limit certain perils, and this is making the investment landscape for renewable energy projects problematic. However, addressing this capacity shortfall represents an opportunity, and the renewables industry is still booming in the heartlands of the US . Plus, Insurance Insider's Rebecca Perkins explains the insurance implications of several tragic plane crashes.

TRANSCRIPT HERE With a career spanning more than 30 years, today's guest is a senior executive who has the London insurance market well and truly in his blood. John Fowle has changed employer since his last appearance on this podcast just under three years ago and with a year under his belt as CEO of Atrium Underwriters, now seemed the perfect time to get him back on the show. Atrium is a Lloyd's blue-chip performer, respected in the market for its agility and underwriting skill across the cycle, and ability to punch well above its weight. As Lloyd's and Atrium are experiencing some of the best market conditions and underwriting results in their histories, this was a meeting with an executive at a business with great prospects in a market that is openly supportive to growth and innovation. With the world effectively Atrium's oyster, there are many doors and options currently open to this carrier. With so many potential choices available, the conversation that follows reveals a lot about John and Atrium's singular view of the insurance world – a view that has stood them both in good stead over the last 30 years. We talk about the prospects for pricing and continued business flow into the London Market, a new-found maturity over collaboration, smart distribution and innovation and get specific updates on some of the classes in which Atrium is recognised as a leader. John is a straight-talking guest who doesn't duck any of my more sensitive questions, but for me it's his deep understanding of how the market fits together and what it does best, coupled with a senior manager's knowledge of how to get the best out of high-performing underwriters that really shines through this Episode. Listen on and I think you'll see what I mean.

Today's guest is a master of the aviation class of business, but is also a well-known and respected market figure across classes, holding key positions in market committees and international insurance trade bodies and non-insurance organisations alike. Bruce Carman has been a leading aviation and war underwriter since the late 1980s and after over 30 years at the heart of the Lloyd's market, started his own specialist MGA, Hive Underwriters in 2017. That business has grown rapidly and has begun to mature and scale and so now seems an excellent time to get Bruce on the show. The aviation market is in a fascinating position post the Russian invasion of Ukraine and part of our talk will be an incredibly useful listen for any generalist who might feel that aviation is sometimes a specialism too far for them. But that wouldn't be doing justice to Bruce and this discussion. Listening back, what this podcast is really about is examining the art of becoming a good and highly focused underwriter and insurance entrepreneur. Bruce is incredibly good company and is very generous with his time and insights. My overriding impression is of someone having the time of their life. Bruce is someone who has been given the opportunity to start from scratch and be fast-paced and nimble in applying the best practices and technology available today to a lifetime of frontline high-performing underwriting experience.   NOTES Abbreviations: EASA = the European Union Aviation Safety Agency WAIG and BAIG = Respectively the Westminster and British Aviation Insurance Groups – early UK aviation pools. BAIG is a forerunner of today's Global Aerospace. Appointed Rep = Appointed Representative.

This week's The Leadership in Insurance Podcast focuses on all things Cyber and AI - where I am joined by Caroline Thompson, CUO, Cowbell.

Some podcast interviews are really fulfilling to be involved with. Sometimes it's the rapport I have with the guest and sometimes it's the subject matter and the insights that I find the most satisfying. Today's podcast is a rare combination because it's both of the above. Jeff Radke Co-Founder and CEO at Accelerant Holdings, is clearly on top of the world in this interview. His business is absolutely flying; it's now employing around 375 people and is connecting an amazing 190 MGAs with 12 insurers and 66 reinsurers on both sides of the Atlantic. The organisation wrote just over $1.7billion of premium in 2023. This is about four times the size the business was when we last spoke just over three years ago. Jeff is great fun to be around, but it's the vision and understanding of how the whole structure of large parts of the specialty insurance sector is changing that is what makes this such a good listen. Back in the old days growth at this speed might have been frowned upon, or at least viewed with a certain amount of scepticism. Not now – these days technological change means that the ultimate capital providers can drill right down into as much detail of the risks their capital is supporting as they want and they can asses the quality of their book in almost real time. Jeff has had a career that has given him an incredibly detailed view of the insurance value chain and his vision for how the new ways the constituent parts of that chain are sharing out the value that they create in much more meritocratic ways is fascinating. So If you have been spending time wondering why the MGA boom seems to have continued unabated even with a hard insurance market and a major reset in reinsurance, this is easily the most eloquent and enjoyable explanation you'll hear on the subject. You'll also learn of Accelerant's plans around captives, his thoughts on Lloyd's as well as underwriting classes as diverse as fish drying and credit LINKS: We thank our naming sponsor AdvantageGo: https://www.advantagego.com

In the final episode of Season 5 of Making Risk Flow, host Juan de Castro sits down with James Platt, Co-Founder and Operating Partner of Trimstone Partners, a boutique strategy consulting business focused on supporting major strategic change in the insurance, asset and wealth management industries. James has an illustrious career in operational transformation and technology innovation, having played pivotal roles as a consultant and partner at Boston Consulting Group and as the CEO of Digital Solutions at Aon.Together, Juan and James discuss why James believes the combined ratio is the worst thing that ever happened to the insurance industry, the reasons why the industry hasn't evolved as successfully as the mortgage and asset management sectors have, and why data, digitisation, and decision-making can be the levers for change.If you'd prefer to watch the episode instead, simply click here!To discover out more about digital risk processing, click here.Our previous guests include: Bronek Masojada of PPL, Simon McGinn of Allianz, Richard Coleman of Ecclesiastical, Steven Wilkins of Hiscox, Matthew Grant of InsTech, Philippe Lutgen of Howden, Paolo Cuomo of Gallagher Re, and Thierry Daucourt of AXA.Check out the three most downloaded episodes: The Five Pillars of Data Analytics Strategy in Insurance | Craig Knightly, Inigo 20 Years as CEO of Hiscox: Personal Reflections and the Evolution of PPL | Bronek Masojada Implementing ESG in the Insurance and Underwriting Space | Simon Tighe, Chaucer, and Paul McCarney, Moody's

The insured is a charitable organization. Times were tough; fundraising was stagnant. The insured was looking to save money, so they asked if they could lower their premiums by canceling their hurricane coverage. The underwriters agreed, and drafted a 1-page endorsement with an exclusion for named storms. Sure enough, the insured got hit with a hurricane the very next month. They submitted a claim anyways, now stating they don't see any named storm exclusion in the policy. The adjuster looks but can't find it either.  Notable Timestamps [ 00:15 ] - It turns out the insurer forgot to include the endorsement in the policy bundle. But still, there are documented conversations that the insured wanted to cancel their hurricane coverage, and they got lower premiums, and the insured doesn't even deny that. Who wins? [ 01:56 ] - Ambiguities are construed against the insurer, because they drafted the policy. But in this case, there's no ambiguities within the four corners of the policy. [ 03:30 ] - The contract says what the contract says, period. The Parole Evidence rule says evidence can't be presented that something else was meant to be different compared to what was in the written contract. [ 06:08 ] - ...But this situation is so unfair! Courts "sit in both law and equity", meaning that if there was a mutual mistake, many courts will reform the contract. [ 07:46 ] - See Shiloh Christian v. Aspen, a Florida case with similar facts which held in favor of the insured. [ 11:30 ] - The adjuster's mistake can't create coverage, but if the insured relied on the insurer's mistake, the doctrine of detrimental reliance would protect the insured. [ 13:55 ] - When does a hurricane get its name? What happens when your name gets co-opted as the name of a bad hurricane? [ 15:33 ] - Tim provides a recap of the scenario and the points above.

In this episode of "Democracy Nerd," host Jefferson Smith discuses the intersection of insurance, entrepreneurship, and the American founding with guest Hannah Farber, a history professor at Columbia University and author of the book "Underwriters of the United States: How Insurance Shaped the American Founding." Farber discusses how early American entrepreneurs, armed with a keen understanding of risk and opportunity, played a pivotal role in shaping the nation's trajectory. Farber's research unveils the risks undertaken by visionary insurance underwriters, who bet on the fledgling United States despite its uncertain future. Through their investments, these individuals not only navigated the precarious waters of uncertainty but also amassed immense wealth, laying the groundwork for American prosperity. Central to Farber's narrative is the examination of how the burgeoning insurance industry intertwined with the nascent American economy, particularly in the realm of international trade. With the birth of a new nation came unprecedented challenges and opportunities in importing and exporting goods. Farber's book illuminates the complexities and realities faced by merchants as they grappled with the intricacies of transatlantic commerce, shedding light on the indispensable role of insurance in mitigating risks and fostering economic growth. The conversation further explores the symbiotic relationship between American insurance companies and merchant vessels during the tumultuous early decades of the 19th century. Against the backdrop of global conflicts, Farber explains how insurance underwriters thrived amidst chaos, capitalizing on the lucrative opportunities presented by wartime trade. As the world grappled with geopolitical turmoil, American insurers and merchants emerged as key beneficiaries, solidifying their status as indispensable pillars of the nation's economic landscape. With Farber's insightful analysis, listeners are transported back in time to witness the dynamic interplay between risk-taking entrepreneurship, insurance innovation, and the forging of American identity. "Democracy Nerd" offers an exploration of the intricate tapestry of forces that shaped the foundation of American prosperity, inviting audiences to reconsider the often-overlooked role of insurance in the nation's historical narrative.

Today's guest has one of the biggest jobs in the London Market. Kate Markham is CEO of Hiscox London Market and the last time we spoke she had just brought her business unit through a remediation strategy that was beginning to bear fruit. Eighteen months later, and the results have been stellar. Today the best are looking to invest and grow and get out on the front foot and lean into the opportunities that a still very strong market has to offer. And this podcast is all about that. This is a business very much looking to the future. Our conversation came about because Hiscox has been one of the first to experiment with artificial intelligence to help speed up and enhance the lead underwriting process and so I wanted to dig right into the detail of what Kate and her teams had done and what the results had been like. So we spend much of this discussion going deep into this and examining where the next steps are going to lead. It's a very heartening and positive message. Underwriters aren't going to be out of a job because they will be freed up to add real value in the assessment of risk and to enhance the service that they give brokers and innovate to improve the relevance and quality of the cover that can give their ultimate customers. The emergence of fully connected digital value chains is also going to make it much easier for a much larger share of world business to access the London Market. After all if underwriters make it really simple to send something to London, and turnarounds are almost instant, why wouldn't many more brokers seek quotes? Kate is full of energy and enthusiasm and our conversation is fun and rattles along at a fast pace. Kate is also one of those leaders who has the gift of instilling confidence in the people they come in contact with and this podcast put a spring in my step about the quality of the London Market's future if it can grasp the unique opportunities it is currently presented with I got a lot out of this chat and I think you will too.
