Episode 216 - Global Risks: Commonwealth Insurance Forum

What are the most challenging risks insurers face today? In this episode of The Journal Podcast, co-founders of the Commonwealth Insurance Forum, Robbie Lyle and Francis De Zulueta, debate some of the most pressing global risks facing the insurance profession. We'll be discussing the interconnectivity of these risks ranging from Nuclear and Space, to Cyber, AI and Ransomware, as well as those stemming from geopolitical developments. We also speak about the importance of capital markets and the role insurers and governments take in mitigating those risks.
