This podcast is a really enjoyable encounter wholly because of the unexpected way these two executives decided to conduct themselves.

In the build up to an interview like this I usually circulate some sample questions beforehand. This is to get the subjects comfortable and to be able gather their best thoughts before we start recording.

But the night before this recording Richard emailed me suggesting that we ditch my list of questions and that he and Stuart should interview me instead.

A bit of broking later and we ended up with elements of both ideas. I hope you enjoy it. Listening back it’s definitely something different. But then no-one in the 153 Episodes preceding this interview has ever suggested we do any like this.

I think what follows is a great advert for the business Richard, Stuart and their teams are building.

The two are different, they’re original and they’re free thinkers who are happy to share their ideas and quite a lot of their own unique personalities.

They’re clearly also having the time of their lives running a business that is looking to underwrite in excess of 1.2 billion dollars of premium in its third year, which is, perhaps unsurprisingly, ahead of the original plan.

NOTES:

Richard speaks first.
