If designed and executed well this is a tool that produces better outcomes for clients and these benefits are ultimately measurable in improved return on equity.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, what I have just described is about as far removed from the traditional broker model as it is possible to be.<\/p>\n<p>This model might not be for everyone, but that is beside the point. Augment is already demonstrating that there is an eager community of sophisticated global buyers keen to discover what a holistic client- and capital-focused broker might be able to do for them.<\/p>\n<p>And that\u2019s what makes this encounter so interesting. Andrew has a singular vision for what he wants to achieve and after this podcast you\u2019ll be in on the act too.<\/p>\n<p>But we don\u2019t just talk about Augment\u2019s plans: legacy, parametric insurance, the future of insurance securitisation and the long-term effects of the digitisation of the insurance value chain are all examined in depth.<\/p>\n<p>Andrew is ultra-smart and highly passionate and his ambition sears through this episode.<\/p>\n<p>For anyone disillusioned with siloed, product-focused and constrained broking, here is someone with a genuinely attractive and genuinely original proposition to put to you.<\/p>\n<p><strong>LINKS:<br \/><\/strong>We thank our naming sponsor\u00a0<strong>AdvantageGo<\/strong>:<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.advantagego.com\/\">https:\/\/www.advantagego.com<\/a><\/p>\n<p>We also thank audio advertiser,\u00a0<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.the-insurance-network.co.uk\/\">The Insurance Network (TIN)<\/a>,<\/strong>\u00a0organiser of the highly-successful TINtech events series.
