In this episode, David Mocklow and I discuss how we can link risk management and insurance together in order to tackle some of the costliest distasters we are (and will be) facing. Securitization has forever changed the nature of (re)insurance. David thinks that combinations or securitazation along with the use of captives and other risk management techniques can be a way for us to deal with financing and mitigating large exposures due to natural catastrophes and more complex exposures such as liability and pandemics. We have a lengthy discussion about the current COVID-19 pandemic for both potential solutions but also more near-term ramifications around claims fallout.
