“Insurance underpins every aspect of modern life. It pulls people out of poverty and protects us all from disaster.”
“I bring over 30 years of practical experience working with insurers, insureds, and brokers in reaching solutions to complex problems in as cost-efficient manner as possible.
Insurance underpins every aspect of modern life by spreading the burden of risk. It pulls people out of poverty and protects us all from disaster. The global economy could not exist without insurance.”
