    Not since the untimely death of the Princess of Wales, Lady Diana, can I think of an event that was globally discussed and touched a majority.

But is this the right approach?

    "With the hurricane, you knew when and at what time it would arrive," Puerto Rico, Guayanilla resident Tatiana Rodriguez, 28, said, adding of the quakes, "This, you don't know at what time it's going to happen." This is the un-happy experience reported by CNN of many people this week in Puerto Rico.

  • Earthquakes, how much warning?

    Posted in InsurTech blog, MicroInsurance blog on Jan 07, 2020


    With earthquakes back in the news from Puerto Rico with a 6.4 Magnitude shock and many aftershocks, this got me thinking about how we can respond with insurance and what warnings people get.

  • Convincing young people to work in insurance

    Posted in Blog, InsurTech blog, MicroInsurance blog on Jan 05, 2020


    Is there any 'community' in insurance? When many industries are all trying to help those in need or to raise awareness of good causes, why does insurance fail at this - the one product designed to help and support communities in their time of need?
