The Federal Budget and its focus on insurance is the main topic of conversation on the latest Insurance News podcast.

As insuranceNEWS.com.au has reported, the Budget contained measures specifically aimed at addressing rising premiums and preparing for natural disasters.

This week’s edition of INsight, hosted by Insurance News MD Andrew Silcox, features the observations of Managing Editor John Deex, Deputy Editor Wendy Pugh and senior journalists Bernice Han and Miranda Maxwell.

Other discussion points include the progress of buy-back and build-back schemes in NSW and Queensland, the latest insurtech trends, and Finity's Optima report that examines industry profitability.
