Emerging risks in your specialty

Global companies are being forced to evaluate their risks in all the geographies in which they operate and adapt their coverages to the nuances of each country. Supply chain disruption, increasingly litigious environments overseas, cyber attacks and employee health and safety during travel are some of the top risks that global companies are dealing with today.

Job change over the next 10 years

We will have better technology available to facilitate the delivery of consultative advice and service to clients. The focus from the brokerage side of the industry will be on understanding our clients’ businesses better and how to tailor our expertise to fit the objectives of our clients amid evolving and emerging risks. We will continue to expand the scope of advice we offer to clients, so it adds value to their organization and goes beyond simply facilitating the placement of insurance for them.

Something people don’t know about you

I had a pet monkey for a few years as a child. I grew up in Quito, Ecuador, and got to experience a lot of fun things, but the pet monkey was definitely a highlight.

Favorite meal

Any meal eaten with good friends, preferably outside. Specific menu choice would be BBQ chicken or ribs, corn on the cob with a salad and French bread.
