EDITOR'S NOTE

As the leaves begin to show the first signs of changing color, at Insider on Air, we’re spotlighting resilience and transformation within the insurance industry. Broker M&A continues to outperform expectations, undeterred by global market swings and political uncertainty—a trend explored in our latest Insider Outlook feature.

We’re also gearing up for a series of forward-thinking webinars that tackle everything from the rising threat of severe thunderstorms and the forthcoming casualty risk era, to the rapid evolution of the CFO’s office thanks to cutting-edge technology platforms.

Our audio offerings include an engaging podcast with HW Kaufman’s Paul Greensmith, who shares firsthand insights into guiding a family-run insurance company onto the world stage.

 September brings opportunities for connection and recognition—from the prestigious Insurance Insider Honours in London to the US Honors in New York, plus events aimed at redefining career pathways and supporting greater diversity within insurance.

Whether you’re tuning in for analysis, signing up for a webinar, or joining us at our industry events, thank you for being part of the Insurance Insider community and embracing the conversations that shape our market.

As always, thanks for watching, reading, and listening.
