In this discussion we make light work of all the issues of the day, taking in topics as diverse as Reinsurance, D&amp;I, the long-term trends of facilitisation and algorithmic underwriting and their consequences, Lloyd\u2019s and the London Market, and insuring the transition. <\/p>\n<p>So listen on as we take a world tour of market opportunities and a refreshed and revitalised player looking to seize the moment.
