The state of the reinsurance market is the main topic of conversation on the latest episode of the Insurance News podcast.

As previously reported, the upcoming Rendez-Vous de Septembre talkfest in Monte Carlo has refocused attention on reinsurers, who have a growing appetite for natural catastrophe risk but will proceed with caution.

This week’s edition of INsight, hosted by Insurance News MD Andrew Silcox, features the observations of editor-in-chief John Deex, deputy editor Wendy Pugh, and senior journalists Bernice Han and Miranda Maxwell.

The panel also discusses wild weather in Victoria and other southern states, the latest round of disaster mitigation funding, and increasing scrutiny of cash settlements.
