What happens when the natural disasters we once considered “secondary perils” become some of the biggest drivers of insurance losses?
On this episode, Hurricane Hal sits down with Kevin Sharp, Chief Risk Officer and Capital Strategy Leader at Victor Insurance and ICAT, for a wide-ranging conversation about catastrophe risk, natural disasters, insurance losses, reinsurance, and the changing global risk landscape.
Kevin brings a unique perspective shaped by a lifelong passion for extreme weather and years of experience in catastrophe insurance and risk modeling. Together, Kevin and Hal explore how insurers can better understand and prepare for an increasingly complex disaster landscape.
Kevin also shares his personal journey from being a weather-obsessed kid experiencing blizzards, floods, tornadoes, and monsoonal flooding to becoming a leader in the catastrophe insurance industry.
If you work in insurance, catastrophe modeling, underwriting, reinsurance, claims, risk management, extreme weather, or disaster preparedness, this episode offers a fascinating bird's-eye view of how today's natural disaster risks are reshaping the insurance landscape.
