Insurers’ appearance before the House of Representatives Standing Committee on Economics was the main talking point on the latest Insurance News podcast.

MPs' lack of industry understanding and hostile approach were discussed by the panel, as well as insurance executives' strong performance under pressure.

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 podcast also considered another parliamentary inquiry where insurers were attacked for withdrawing cover from coal mining, as well as the industry's High Court defeat on the first business interruption test case.
