The reinsurance market, and its approach to Australia, is changing fast, and that’s why an analysis of the latest renewals makes the cover of the latest edition of Insurance News magazine.

Yes, most of the local market renews mid-year, but crucial lessons can be learned from what went down on January 1.

We also publish two surveys this month – a broker opinion survey featuring some stark criticism of insurers, and an industry leaders survey that looks forward to the challenges of 2023.

You might not agree with everything that’s said, but both make fascinating reading.

There’s also an interview with Lloyd’s Chairman Bruce Carnegie-Brown, who sees opportunity as a new risk landscape emerges, but believes insurers can’t cover everything alone.

And we take another look at the flood pool debate that just won’t go away, as the country comes to terms with last year’s catastrophic events.

There’s all that and so much more in the February- March issue of Insurance News, which is being mailed out to subscribers this week and will be available online soon.
