INsight podcast: coal, climate and insurance
Australian insurers’ attitude to coal mining and associated projects is the focus of this week’s Insurance News podcast.
Insurers have been pulling back from coal, but a new parliamentary inquiry has encouraged the fossil fuel sector to give its side of the story.
This week’s edition of INsight, hosted by Insurance News Managing Director Andrew Silcox, features the observations of Insurance News Publisher Terry McMullan and Managing Editor John Deex.
The panel discusses what coal mining companies are saying, the response from the insurance industry, and who’s likely to come out on top.
The podcast also looks at the stampede to get involved with Treasury’s taskforce on the recently announced reinsurance pool for northern Australia, the mice plague in NSW and the Insurance Council of Australia’s rebrand.
You can find a new episode of INsight published here every Wednesday.
