MP3•Thuis aflevering

Today’s guest has had one of the broadest and most diverse careers of anyone I have interviewed.
Today Kera McDonald is the Chief Underwriting Officer of Swiss Re Corporate Solutions but over more than 25 years she has been an actuary and a pensions consultant, a risk manager, an aviation underwriter and a senior executive in an internal audit team.
I’d say that unique blend of experience is an excellent preparation for her current role, particularly as Swiss Re Corporate Solutions moves out of its remediation phase into a period of sustainable growth.
Kera is direct and easy to talk to and in this podcast we discuss the state of the global insurance market and Corporate Solutions’ strategy within it as well as this unique business’s position within its wider group and the applications of technology and artificial intelligence as the market digitises.
She doesn’t duck any difficult questions and is excellent and incredibly well-informed company.
I really benefitted from my time with Kera and I think you will too.
NOTES:
This interview was recorded on 22 February 2023 and so questions
are based on Swiss Re's Q3/9-month 2023 results.

A couple of abbreviations slipped through:
PYD stands for Prior Year claims Development.
And of course, CorSo is an abbreviation of Swiss Re Corporate Solutions itself..
