Funny thing about blogging...

The great benefit of blogging, if you set out to write something that you at least hope someone else is going to read, is that you are forced to think carefully about what it is you want to write about.

Will insurance ever offer more than risk transfer?

This is the first of a series of pieces I will try to post over the coming weeks on digital risk and its implications for the insurance industry.

I have just finished reading a report from the Lloyd’s 360° Risk Insight team – Managing Digital Risk, trends, issues and implications for business.  It was produced by Lloyd’s but written by a couple of guys at HP and if you want to know about ‘Managing Digital Risk, trends, issues and implications for business,’ it does exactly what it says on the tin.
